Under federal law, convicted felons (you) are prohibited from ever owning a firearm! If you are ever found in possession of a firearm, that is grounds for immediate return to the state or federal facility that you were eager to leave.
Congratulations, you are now paying the price for your earlier decision!

no sorry but after the felony is 10 years old you can go back before a judge and apply to get your rights to bear arms reinstated. you have to hire a lawyer and fill out 2 forms its not that hard to do and normal costs are about 500 dollars.

You are not allowed to purchase/own/carry a gun if you've been convicted of a felony. Not even in Texas...

No,
It is possible, in some cases, to hire a lawyer and be able to exsponge your record, and then be able to own a firearm, but it is a long shot. An expensive longshot.

If you have a felony conviction the answer is no. The key word is 'conviction.'

You can't own a gun if you have a felony charge.

The National Rifle Association (NRA) claims that it supports vigorous enforcement of our nation's gun laws and efforts to keep guns out of the hands of criminals. Yet the NRA has actually worked to put guns back into criminals' hands. Following is the saga of the federal "relief from disability" program. The NRA has worked to expand and protect this guns-for-felons program that has rearmed thousands of convicted—and often violent—felons.
