∙ 9y agoYes. Being married to a felon does not restrict another person from owning a gun or getting a permit, however, you have to take careful steps to be sure the person who is the felon never has access to the gun.
Generally speaking, no. If a person is a felon, they cannot normally own guns unless the person's gun rights have been restored.
First, the term ex-felon is almost always misused. If a person is a felon, they are always a felon, unless the conviction and charges are later overturned and removed. Otherwise, the person is ALWAYS a felon. Second, to answer your question, there is a concept known as constructive intent or constructive possession. A felon cannot have access to or control over a firearm. It is not illegal, techincally, for a felon to be in the vicinity of a person with a gun, unless the felon has intent to control the weapon.
Please define "what happens." Nothing magically happens. Felons are not allowed to own or possess firearms in the U.S.
In general, yes. It gets a little fuzzier if the person who is "registered to carry a gun" is actually carrying one at the time. The firearm would need to be clearly and unambiguously in the licensed person's possession and not the felon's.
Ask the person's probation officer.

yes, but the felon may not have access to the gun.
It depends on where you are, and also what you are asking. If you are asking can a felon accept a gun as a gift, the answer is, no, not in the U.S. at least. In the U.S. a felon cannot own or even possess a gun, unless the felon has had his or rights restored.
