Criminal Defense Law Answers

Great question.  Typically a felon is not allowed to own a firearm.  BB (black powder guns), certain length knives, etc. cannot be owned by felons because of their intended and unintended uses.

If you feel you may qualify for a sealing of your record and or expungement of your record (you do either to restore your rights so you may be able to carry such weapons), then consult with a criminal defense attorney in Georgia to see if you qualify for these proceedings and have him or her help you with the process.
