Can a convicted felon hunt with crossbow in Louisiana?

I could be wrong about this but I know for a fact that a convicted felon cannot own a gun or be around one unless he gets a pardon from the govenor and I think it's really hard to get so a crossbow is a weapon. They may not claim it as a gun but it is and I know that felons cannot have, own or possess a firearm or weapon. I could be wrong about this but I hope this helps answer your question. You may want to call your local authorities and ask them. L.A.R.S 14:95 prohibits convicted felons from owning, purchasing or possessing "FIREARMS" a firearm is defined in other sections of the but is shown in 14:95 to include "shotguns, rifles, machine guns. pistols, black power guns" or devices that use explosive powder to discharge a projectile / ammunition. A bow / crossbow is not considered a "FIREARM" I am a convicted felon and I hunt with a compound bow sometimes twice a day! Im not sure if a separate classification exist for crossbows , possibly on the federal level. I would check that out before I took off through the woods,, It could be 15 years before you come out the other side!!! Good luck
