Can a ex fellon become a gunsmith?

Well, first, let's define terms. The term ex-felon is almost always used incorrectly. If someone is a felon, the only way to be an ex-felon is to have the charges completely reversed and removed from the record because it is later determined that the person did not commit the crime. Having the record expunged does not make a person an ex-felon, nor does being released from prison, nor does having rights restored...the person is still a felon. Second, if the person is a felon, he or she cannot legally possess or control firearms, unless their firearms rights have been restored, therefore, it would not be legal for that person to work on firearms.
