Yes to both of you questions. Yes, you can still own firearms and yes he could get his right to bear arms restored.

Now, in reality, I highly doubt your father in law will ever get his firearms rights back.

I am not a lawyer. I highly recommend contacting an attorney fully versed in firearm laws, pardons, and expungements. There is one on this forum who has many clients and has been successful in his law practice. His handle on this forum: Gunlawyer.

Also, this forum has this thing called a "SEARCH" function. You, believe it or not, are not the first person to ask the exact same question. A little research on your own can go a LONG way!

I highly doubt anyone on here would want his rights restored ....

You have two issues here (assuming you're comfortable having him around in the first place):

1) He's clearly a prohibited person, and can NEVER be in possession of -- or have access to -- ANY firearms or ammunition. From your description, that sounds like a permanent condition (a pardon sounds highly unlikely). You'd need to secure them so that he never has access to them.

2) As long as he's on parole, it's almost certain that Philadelphia prohibits him from living anywhere with weapons present -- no matter how "inaccessible" to him.

I don't mean to sound harsh but why in the name of God do you have this person living in your home and potentially endangering your family? It's like having a cupboard full of toxic waste in open containers in your home. Sure the stuff is contained now but just barely. It's a nasty situation just waiting to happen.

The Bloomberg school does not teach grammar.
