5) What if I was convicted of a violent felony? Someone said you cannot get your gun rights restored after a violent felony?

Yes, it is possible to get your gun rights back after a conviction for a violent felony. You do not lose your gun rights forever after a violent felony.

Obviously, the nature of the charge is one of the many details that factor into the case. But it is absolutely possible to restore your gun rights after a violent felony.
