First, the term ex-felon is almost always misused. If a person is a felon, they are always a felon, unless the conviction and charges are later overturned and removed.

The answer is sort of complicated. Most people will tell you "no" but that actually isn't correct. Most people say that felons can't "be around" guns, and that isn't exactly correct either. Based on statutes and case law, a felon cannot have constructive possession of a gun. What that means, basically, in order for a crime to have been committed, a felon must have access to AND desire to control a weapon. If a felon is in a house that has a gun, but the gun is locked up where the felon cannot conceivably access it, techincally no crime has been committed. Now, you will probably have someone tell you they are a cop and that they will arrest a felon under these circumstances. The answer to that is, a cop can (basically) arrest anyone for any reason, and at the moment of arrest, there's not much you can do. What matters in that case is what a prosecutor can prove or what you can disprove later in court.
