Felons may not possess or have access to firearms. Title 18, US Code, Section 922.
What else can I help you with?
Can a felon shoot a gun at a gun range?
A convicted felon cannot possess a firearm. 'Possess' does not mean 'own'. If you pick one up, you have committed another felony. To own is one of the examples of the definition "Possess" so either way you look at it its a felony.
Can a convicted felon in Missouri own a gun?
No. The state of residence has nothing to do with it. It is a violation of FEDERAL law (US Code, Title 18) for convicted felon to ever own or possess a firearm or ammunition. Edit: The original answer is not entirely correct. 18 USC 922(g) says that a convicted felon cannot possess a firearm; however, 18 USC 921(a)(20) states that a felon who has had his or her civil rights restored on the underlying state felony conviction is no longer affected by that provision in 922. Therefore, if the state in which the felony occurred allows for restoration of civil rights (such as by a decree of the governor) and the felon has received that restoration, then he or she can in fact own a firearm. As if that weren't complicated enough, there's an additional provision in the federal law. A felon can get back the right to own a firearm only if the relevant state's civil rights restoration includes the right to vote, hold elected office, AND serve on a jury. If any of those three are missing, then the federal law still prohibits owning a firearm regardless of what state law says. In the case of Missouri, felons are prohibited from ever serving on a jury unless pardoned, so only a pardon (which removes the conviction entirely) can restore the right to own a firearm.
Can you buy a firearm with a felony coviction in pa?
No. See this thread from a PA gun organization website:http://forum.pafoa.org/general-2/39531-can-felon-hunt-black-powder-rifle.htmlAccording to a member that goes by GunLawyer001 ...Gun shop employees and police officers are notorious for not knowing the firearms laws.If we read the actual law it seems pretty clear to me.Your felony conviction prohibits you from possessing firearms per 18Pa.C.S.§6105(http://paopencarry.org/uniform-firearms-act#6105)Paragraph (i) defines "Firearm" for that section as follows.Sorry, but my understanding of the above is that no, you can not.There's always archery, which IMO is more fun anyway.This is all perfectly correct, and I say this as a licensed member of the PA bar. In case that Official Stamp of Approval helps anyone.
What crimes do you do to get a habitual felon?

Can a felon in Oregon hunt?
Yes, convicted Felons can Bow hunt in Oregon, provided the felon has completed their Post Prison Supervision, Probation or Parole and been completely discharged from the court/corrections/supervision system... The only reason they can't bow hunt while on supervision is because it is a condition of PPS/Probation/Parole that they cannot possess ANY weapons... A Bow is not a Firearm, and is not treated as one in Oregon; although in 2008 they did place restrictions on Felons owning Antique firearms (there still remains some clarity issues about muzzle loaders amongst law enforcement however)... See ORS 166.170-735 http://www.leg.state.or.us/ors/166.htmlFurthermore there are no laws preventing Felons from obtaining hunting/fishing licenses/tags (General Bow Hunts include Buck/Deer/Elk/Pronghorn/Grey Squirl and Special Bow hunts are available for Bear/Cougar/Bighorn/Mtn Goat)... 2009 Oregon Big Game Regs (pdf) http://www.dfw.state.or.us/resources/hunting/big_game/regulations/2009biggameregsweb.pdf
