87GT Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 You can't legally buy a gun if you are a felon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptn janks Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 no, but their wife can have a very large collection. a felon CAN get their gun rights restored by a judge, but good luck with that. chances are not good for a regular guy. now if you a member of their club, have donated lots of money to the judge's re-election campaign etc etc, then your chances are looking better.

cinergi Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 You can apply for your gun rights back. If you google it, you will find the info somewhere on the ATF site. There is a certain amount of time that must pass, but other than that it can be done as far as I understand. I do believe there might be some restrictions regarding violent crimes, though.

smokinHawk1647545499 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 depending on what level of felony it can be easy to get your record expunged after the allotted time and thus eligible to own firearms again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend just got his record expunged in California. Since then he has not only bought guns, he now has his Ohio CCW. Total cost=$1500 to have the expungement done.

Total cost=$1500 to have the expungement done. There is a fine line also with the expungement trust if it was that cheap and easy it would of been off my record years ago. I have a felony on my record for something I did as a joke in highschool ( Stealing golf clubs out of a teachers garage, and yes I did throw them back in his yard the next night) . I handled all kinds of stuff in the marines as a grunt and was never told no because of the felony, and I work for the state of ohio in the prison systems now. The police at my work told me that im allowed to own/buy rifles just not handgun's after 7 years. I own rifles and pistols now they never took them away from me after I commited the crime, only thing I had to do when I was on probation was keep the firearms at my grandma's. I called both the police state and sheiff station and they dont me they had no idea, and to call the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty2Hotty Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Felony/Dishonorable Discharge from the US Military are one in the same, as in your RIGHT to own a firearm is taken. Expunging your record is a great way to start, then move from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
