When i was 14 i had a felony of the fifth degree on me but when i turned 18 all that got wiped..now can i still get a shotgun or a rifle? i was hopeing to get a Hi-Point <*Thats the manufacture* 995 Carbine but i don't want to go buy a gun, then come to find out that the charges play a role in that..If i was 18 or older when it happend then that would be one thing..but the thing is can i still get on since the charge was when i was a minor and now it is wiped off there?

Call the state Attorney general's office and ask for a written opinion.
I sure hope you've learned your lesson and see the value of obeying the law now.

Write an email to the ATF describing this situation and print and save their reply:

Hi-points are cheap. They may be fun for a while, but cheap always disappoints in the end.
Get a Marlin 60 or ruger 10/22 .22 rifle and you will shoot a lot more and never be disatisfied.

I'd go visit the county attorney's office. They should be able to tell you if you're a go or no-go on gun buying.
Also, don't buy the hi-point. They SUCK! Just spend another $100 and get a Beretta.

I can offer no leagle advise but on guns my advise will be very good. By all means stick to Ruger products they are the worlds best hands down.

My cousin got into a high speed car chase an has multiple drug and DUI charges and places still let him buy guns, I just don't get it. I would say your good. Also check this out before you buy a highpoint http://www.kel-tec.com/sub2000.html.

Depends on state law if things get erased. I'd call lawyer who deals in these cases first.

Yes you can buy a gun, but stay away from Highpoint, they are cheap and the firing pins break often!
