Yes, they can get a FOID card, but it is not legal for them to own or carry a gun.
If a person lives in Little Rock, Arkansas and has a valid FOID (Firearms Operational Identification) in Illinois, the FOID card cannot be used to hunt in Arkansas. A person will have to get a new FOID for the state of Arkansas to use it in Arkansas.
Do i need a gun card for a crossbow in il.
It depends on the specific requirements and regulations of the state in which you are seeking to obtain a FOID card. In some states, being on supervision may impact your eligibility for a FOID card, as it involves a background check. It is advisable to check with the relevant state authorities or a legal professional for accurate information in your particular situation.
From the questions reference to an "foid" card I will assume it is being asked about the state of Illinois. You are not required by any federal law to have an identification card in order to possess a firearm, but the state CAN require such an ID card if you wish to carry it.
To own a Foid card one must not be a felon, or have any drug charge (including a marijuana ticket) The application asks about felony convictions and it asks about marijuana, Do not lie.
According to the email I have received from the department itself, YES they still do by Illinois law. The only time they can be excused or do not need a FOID card is when they are accompanied by their (active member)officer.
In states that require them, it is a license to own (not to carry concealed) a gun.
If their civil rights have been restored and part of that process includes the ability to own a firearm, and they otherwise qualify a convicted felon may obtain a firearm owners identification card. See the related link below.
