FAQ
There are two basic ways to have gun rights restored after an eligible conviction: by having a “wobbler” felony reduced to a misdemeanor, or. by receiving a pardon from the California governor.
For those with more than one conviction, the court may restore firearms rights two years after completion of sentence for most felonies, or after 10 years for a serious felony (such as murder or sexual assault). For a person convicted of a “dangerous felony” firearms rights may only be restored by pardon.
Pardon from California Governor There is only one relatively certain way to restore your federal gun rights: obtain a pardon. Pardons can be obtained from either the Governor of California or the President of the United States.
The Second Amendment Permits The Disarming of “Dangerous” Felons. Each year, more than 8,000 people are convicted for unlawful possession of a firearm under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g). About 90% of those cases arose from gun possession by a felon.
As long as your wife doesn't have any disqualifying reasons, she can own a firearm. The problem is, that as a convicted felon, you cannot own, use or possess a firearm. It's not just ownership - it's the ``possession'' that could hurt you.
In California, most convicted felons face a lifetime ban on owning firearms. However, in rare cases, gun rights may be restored after 10 years if the felony is reduced to a misdemeanor and meets specific criteria. This is generally uncommon, and most felons remain permanently barred from owning guns.
Possession of a firearm by a felon is considered a felony punishable by a prison sentence ranging from one to three years, depending on state laws. Second or third offenses will result in even more severe criminal punishments. These can include lengthy prison sentences and higher fines.
Texas law says no, but it contains an exception. Section 46.04 of the Texas Penal Code makes it illegal for someone convicted of a felony to possess a firearm. If more than 5 years have passed since completing their prison sentence (including parole or probation), the law allows possessing a firearm at home.
