There are only two instances where a convicted felon can retain firearm rights.
- The felony conviction was for something which is only a felony at state level, not under federal law. In this case, it is possible to apply for and receive relief of disability.
- The felony conviction was later overturned, the convicted person was release, and the case against them was dismissed.
Those are the only instances where someone is an ex-felon. They can get their firearm rights back.
If you were convicted of a felony, and neither of the above conditions are applicable to you, you are forbidden by federal law from ever purchasing, possessing, or being allowed access to firearms. There are no waivers granted.
