In the US (other countries will have different laws) there are Federal Laws that apply everywhere in the US, and state laws that apply only in that state. Following is Federal law that applies to buying a gun from a dealer:
You must be an adult (18 for rifle/shotgun, 21 for handgun) and must not have a condition that disqualifies you from owning a firearm. These include having been convicted of a felony (serious crime) or a crime of domestic violence. You cannot have been adjudged to be mentally incompetent, be a drug addict, illegal alien, wanted by the police, dishonorably discharged from the military, etc. You need proof of your identity, address, and age. You complete a form 4473 with the dealer, covering these points. The dealer conducts a computer records check, and if approved, will sell you the gun. SOME states require a waiting period before picking up some firearms, some states require an individual permit- MOST do not. See your local gun shop for some guidance. Once you own a gun, you are responsible for securing it to prevent access by children, etc.
Owning a gun is not illegal if you follow the laws.

She never mentioned owning a gun.
No you dont. but you should just check the laws depending on where you live for the regulations and rules of owning one.. hoped this helps
It depends on where you are. In the U.S. each state sets its own rules. I can tell you, by federal law, the only misdemeanor that disqualifies you from owning a gun is a misdemeanor conviction for domestic violence.

Restrictions on owning a hand gun depends on what nation this question is being directed. In the United States the restrictions on owning a hand gun varies in each state. For example, in the state of New York, on is not allowed to own any type of gun while in Arizona one can own anything except a machine gun or army tactical weapons.
