Are You Eligible to Have Your Gun Rights Restored?

As a felon, to be eligible for gun rights restoration, you’ll first have to finish any terms of incarceration related to felony convictions on your record. Once incarceration is served, you are eligible to have your gun rights restored even if you are still on some sort of supervised release such as probation or parole.

Note that just because you are eligible doesn’t mean that you will have your gun rights restored. The application process takes many factors into account to determine if you should have your gun rights restored. This is why it’s beneficial to get a lawyer involved in the process before you begin.
