Like most legal matters, that all depends. A person that is under indictment for a felony (charged, waiting for trial) may NOT purchase a firearm. However, if you were charged but not convicted, trial is over, etc, that should NOT be a bar to purchase.

You will need a lawyer for a current, legal and correct answer.
