I believe that there may be a Texas law which allows a felon to possess a handgun IN THEIR RESIDENCE ONLY for self-protection.

Can a wife of a convicted felon buy a gun?
NO, with very few exceptions. Under the provisions of the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA), convicted felons and certain other persons are prohibited from possessing or receiving firearms. The GCA provides the Attorney General with the authority to grant relief from this disability where the Attorney General determines that the person is not likely to act in a manner dangerous to the public safety and granting relief would not be contrary to the public interest. The Attorney General delegated this authority to ATF. Rules and regulations for firearm ownership and sales can be found in ATF publication 5300.4 at the link below. Unless a person's gun rights have been restored by a judge, which is not as common as people think, a felon cannot legally own a gun in the U.S. A felony is specifically one of the things that makes a person prohibited.

If you are a conviceted felon can your husband own a firearm and keep it in the home for protection if you live in Texas?
This is a situation where you would go wrong if you only looked at Texas law. Texas law lets a convicted felon possess a firearm on the premises where he lives once five years have elapsed from his release from prison or from parole, whichever is later. Texas Penal Code §46.04. However, federal law is much stricter. It generally prohibits a person convicted of a crime "punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year" from possessing a firearm. The test is the length of possible punishment, not whether the crime is called a misdemeanor or a felony. No exception is made for having a firearm at the home, no matter how long ago the conviction. 18 U.S.C. § 922(g). Also, Federal law makes it unlawful for anyone under indictment for a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year to receive (possess) any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce. 18 U.S.C. § 922(n).

Can a convicted felon own a pellet rifle in ct?
"In the presence" is kind of vague. A felon cannot have access to firearms, so if the felon is in the presence of guns that can be accessed by the felon, then no, that is illegal.Added; No! Such a situation would put the felon in, what is known as, "concurrent possession." Meaning that although he may not actually have the firearm on his person, he is in close enough proximity to it to have access to it, and/or exercise control over it.Additional info on concurrent possession: Some courts, such as in Pennsylvania in the case of The Commonwealth v. Heidler, have ruled that in order for concurrent possession to apply, the felon must have "both the power to control and the intent to control the firearm." Additionally, in the case of The Commonwealth v. Wilson, taking its grounds from Heidler, has stated that the "mere presence of one person, among a group at a scene of contraband, is not a strong factor indicative of guilt." Therefore, depending on the factors involved, mere presence may not be enough to convict a person of any criminal act.
