Need some facts
So I have a record as an adult. The basics are, I have 2 M2's on my record and a DUI from when I was 18-19 two separate incidents both involving driving when I shouldn't. The one is a fleeing and the second is unsworn false identification to a law enforcement officer during a traffic stop. Now my question is this: I've read articles saying I'm not allowed to purchase a firearm, and I've read articles saying I CAN purchase a firearm. My cop friend says he doesn't see why not, my gun nut friend says no way I'll get laughed out of the store. I'm looking for some concrete answers because everywhere I look I'm finding information that doesn't match up.

Re: Need some facts
If your intent is to buy a pistol and perhaps carry it I will point out the fact that the laws about purchase and obtaining a LTCF are different. The law regarding getting a LTCF are more strict than simple ownership. Assuming you contact a lawyer ask about both.

I know people that have M2's and own and carry guns legally.

Re: Need some facts
Option 1 can land you in jail if you gamble and lose.

Re: Need some facts
The simple fact is you need the services of a competent lawyer well versed in firearm laws. It will be money well spent.
