Can you buy a gun with a DUI felony?

IIRC, a DUI felony is a state, and not federal felony. At the moment, no - federal law prohibits anyone with a felony record from purchasing, possessing, or having access to a firearm. However, if you get yourself an attorney, it MIGHT be possible for you to have your firearms rights restored, provided it's a felony only at state, and not federal level. Bear in mind, though, that nothing is guaranteed.
