Thats weird that its a federal law, but the states decide.

I just know my uncle has a felony (got busted with several pounds of weed when he was 18) and can still own a muzzleloader, but nothing else.
Prob depends if it works! Says felons can own antique firearms but also says plenty of antique muzzle loading guns are still considered firearms by atf and therefore can’t be owned!

Didn’t know til my google search just now but texas has an exemption and if its been 5+ years since u completed your sentence for the conviction then u can own a firearm IN YOUR OWN HOME but it did clearly say federal law has no such exemption! :shrug:

States can gave exemptions but if feds raided u the state law wouldn’t matter cuz would be super ceded by the federal law! Also if said black powder gun still actually worked and fired i doubt it would be legal but i am far too lazy to search your states laws! ;) :rofl:

Like seriously. He's into indian artifacts, and then will start telling you about how hundreds of years ago people were bigger and lived longer, and that he's seen skeletons of giant native americans.

I used to deer hunt with him. He is addicted to pain killers. In order to stay awake in his tree stand, he would trade some of his pain killers to a friend of his for some ADHD meds. So he'd take a huge dose of opiates and then take a big dose of Adderall in order to stay awake. And of course he would pass out. He would also want to stay super super late, like until you can't see your hand in front of your face its so dark. I quit hunting when I can't see the front sight on my bow anymore. Because once thats gone, whats the point? I can't aim. Well to get to my truck from my stand I had to walk past his stand. I was always super afraid he'd hear me coming, wake up enough and take a shot at a shadow without knowing what it was. It got sick of sitting in the dark from 7 to 9 or so every night waiting on him to wake up and be ready to go home.

His doctors finally figured out he was doctor shopping for pills, and now he had to drive to a pain clinic every day to get his one percoset pill a day.
 
Good morning and thanks for the reps, @Emerald Archer. I have one of those wrist-supported slingshots that shoots .38 caliber ball bearings. I've had to change the rubber a couple of times. I lost my 2nd amendment rights many years ago because of monkey bizness, so now home defense is just the slingshot and baseball bat. Realistically, my main defense is just being a good neighbor and not making enemies. If I ever needed the slingshot in a pinch, the rubber would probably be old, and would snap and take out me eyeball.
Something just came up in the last week with a ruling by a district supreme Court judge, surprisingly enough appointed by Obama, where there is the distinct possibility that nonviolent felony offenders could very well get their Second Amendment rights back to carry everywhere. She overturned a conviction in state court of a felon in Possession of a firearm.
There are a couple of states that after incarceration and a time has lapsed with no new cases, you do get your right to own firearms but only carry at home on your property.

It all goes back to a federal Supreme Court ruling in recent history, to where any modern gun control legislation, must conform to the rules, regulations and intent in place at the time of the writing and passing of the amendments In December 15th 1791.

It seems that our modern legislators tend to forget what the amendments are for!!!!!

DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Constitutional amendments don't say or give people the rights, it limits what government can do.


It will definitely be interesting on how this shakes out in the end! As long as they are nonviolent, I have no problems whatsoever with that being overturned!
