Missouri Amendment 5, passed in 2016, states that citizens have the right to bear arms and includes protections for the rights of law-abiding citizens to possess firearms. However, it does not automatically restore gun rights to felons; individuals convicted of certain felonies in Missouri typically remain ineligible to own firearms unless their rights are restored through a specific legal process. Therefore, while Amendment 5 affirms the right to bear arms, it does not grant felons the right to possess guns without further action.

Can Ms felons be around guns?
"Be around?" Yes. However, the felon cannot have access to the gun.Added: NO! Definitely NOT! "Being around" a gun places the felon in what is known in the law as CONSTRUCTIVE POSSESSION of the firearm which is enough to put him in prison.It depends on the definition of "being around." I discussed this specifically last year with the local DA in my area because someone I know was a felon, but he comes over to my house occassionally. The DA said that as long as the person doesn't have access to the firearm (IE: the firearm is locked up), he is not in violation. I also specifically asked him about a spouse of a felon living in the same house and he said that the same thing applies. If the gun is locked up and not accessible to the felon, there is no violation. And to futher my answer: some high courts have held to this, such as Commonwealth v. Heidler, which holds constructive possession only applies if it can be proven that the felon "had both the power to control and the intent to control the firearm."

You are a convicted felon your employer keeps a gun on the premises you are being robbed do you have the right to protect your self with it?
Ooooooooo, good question! In most states it is illegal for a convicted felon to possess a handgun, no matter what. In this situation you could legally protect yourself with a handgun (if the situation allows you to use deadly force that is), but you would still be breaking the law by possessing a handgun. Would they let the handgun charge slide? it depends on the judge and your priors.
Can a felon with a sentence of less than one year own a gun?
a felon, I believe, cannot own a gun, regardless of their sentence. You can call your state representative to check, but I'm pretty sure, because they do background checks. I think they disregard midemenors, but felonies, i think they wouldn't let you own a gun.ADDED: Regardless of the length of the sentence you received - it is the offense you were convicted of which counts. If you were convicted of a felony crime, you cannot possess a firearm of any type (exept certain specified antiques).
