From other discussions ive read on here you need your rights to be reinstated and likley need an attorney. Id put the guns in some one elses safe and go talk to an attorney.
They know now. I wouldn't have posted this on a public forum. Good luck.
I had a felony out of the state of california that i had expunged a few years back and now have a couple guns and have had a couple people say i am legal to have them and others who say i am not. Anyone know for sure on here ? Lookin for cops or someone who really knows.
You more than likely admitted to a crime publicly. CA law and what you did there with respect to expungment will dictate. If you had an attorney for the expungment, I'd call them first as they will know their jurisdiction best.
maybe bigtex will reply
If you bought your guns from a store, then I wouldn't worry about it.Hunterman(Tony)

Go try to buy a gun in store and see if you pass the background check that'll tell ya.Silverslinger is right, that's how it works for WA crimes anyways. Having your record expunged does not restore your rights, you have to make action to get them restored. Jackelope - they switched that law a few years back, felons can vote now.
I'm not a lawyer,but I think your fine. When buying a gun,question 11c asks have you ever been convicted of a felony,in that same box it says see exceptions,there it says if your received a pardon,expungment or set aside you can answer NO. If you are sure it was expunged I would think your ok. I had something on my record that was set aside 30yrs ago,I had no problem getting a Wa CPL and a Utah CWP.
"federal only comes in play if it was a federal charge I know because I've done my reasearch." this is NOT correct, any felony in any state, or a Domestic violence you lose all gun rights in all states. you better re-research.Carlthat said I think this guy is fine but should ask a lawyer.

Sure they can probably trace IP addresses and if you wanted you could use a public computer or open WiFi to skirt that. Hell I'm typing this via my mobile phone. Can they trace this? I don't know and don't care. I'm full blown law abiding with nothing to hide. That's why I used my real name when I signed up. You don't find me trolling around being Mr. Negative, insulting others, or reducing the integrity of this forum. But Silverslinger - you quickly jumped out and insulted my intelligence. You did provide quality feedback to the OP which is what this forum is about, but why the sny remark? Is it because your identity is hidden? Anonymity is killing online social spheres, let's not degrade this forum please.
