Can a convicted DWI felon own a gun in NY?

In New York, a convicted DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) felon is generally prohibited from owning a firearm. New York law restricts gun ownership for individuals with felony convictions, and DWI offenses resulting in felony status fall under this restriction. However, individuals may apply for a pardon or have their rights restored after a certain period, depending on the specifics of their case. It's essential for anyone in this situation to consult legal counsel for guidance.

Can a felon in ny state hunt with a muzzle loader?

Please verify with the NY State Game Commission- and the answer seems to be "maybe". NY does not consider an "antique" to be a firearm. The term Antique includes muzzle loading caplock or flintlock rifles and shotguns, and present day reproductions of them. However, a modern, in-line, 209 primer type muzzleloader CANNOT be used by a felon under FEDERAL law. That prohibits a felon from possessing "ammunition"- and ammunition includes 209 shotshell type primers (but not #11 percussion caps). Some state laws permit possessin of a muzzleloader by felons, some do not- so please verify with your state.
