If a charge is expunged it is erased from record. If your record has no entries of things that would prevent you from purchasing a handgun, you will be ok.
Another View: An expungement just closes that particular expunged offense record to PUBLIC scrutiny. Law enforcement, the courts, Government agencies, and organizations conducting background checks for national security clearances, still have access to it. Therefore - no - you will not be eligible to purchase a firearm unless you reside in one of those small number of states that restore limited ownership rights after expungement.
