You didn't really ask a question, but here is some information:
Generally speaking, no felon may own, posses, or have constructive possession of a handgun or other firearm, regardless of whether is was a "serious" felony.
HOWEVER,
There are exceptions to that. In a few states, felons can petition to have their rights restored - but it is only valid in THAT particular state. In that case, the felon CAN own or posses a firearm.
Generally speaking, simple possession of the handgun is a non-violent crime. Violent crime is normally defined as a crime where someone is hurt, or where force is used on another person. Note, however, depending on the local laws and the circumstances, it may still be a felony.
Yes. Any instrument that is prohibited by law for any citizen to have without a license, firearms, switchblade knife, explosives, etc. Almost any object that can cause bodily harm could be construed as a "weapon" if it is used against an individual(s). If a convicted felon was caught with a gun rather than a baseball bat he or she would face stiffer penalties, assuming the bat was not used in a criminal act.
Not enough information to answer. What is making the possession of it "illegal?" Was it used in an unlawful manner? Is it a stolen weapon? Are you an adjudged felon?
Roscoe is a commonly used slang term for a handgun.
Well what the heck is it?
Felon = Federally prohibited from possessing a firearm. It is considered illegal in every state for a convicted felon to be in possession of a firearm. By definition, a firearm is a weapon that is designed to expel a projectile by the action of smokeless or black powder. A felony firearm charge can also be brought against convicted felon who is found in possession of a firearm, regardless of the intended or actual use of the weapon. The offense level for this type of felony firearm crime also varies by state but is greater when the gun is loaded, kept or used unlawfully. The laws governing the penalties for felony firearm crimes vary by state and the specific circumstances of the crime. A person can also be charged in a felony firearm case when they knowingly purchase a firearm for a felon, an offense called "straw" purchasing. It is also a felony firearm crime to purchase, or otherwise handle, a firearm with the intent of furnishing it to a convicted felon.

Under FEDERAL law, which applies in every state, you must be 21 to purchase ammo for a handgun. Ammo that may be used in a handgun or rifle may be purchased at 18 IF the seller knows that it will be used for a rifle.
A felon is someone who committed a felony(More serious crime) An ex felon is someone who has finished parole and is back in society. Sorry, that is incorrect. "Ex-felon" is a grossly, almost always misused term. A person who was in prison on felony charges but is now out of prison is still a felon. The only way to be an ex-felon is to have been acquitted of the charges. I should also add that an expungement does not make you an ex-felon either. An expungement simply means the felony is no longer on your PUBLIC record. Also, a felon can sometimes have his rights restored, but that doesn't make you an ex-felon either.
