Missouri firearms and convicted felons?

Postby fyfe » Fri Dec 16, 2011 10:20 am

What is the law in "missouri" for those felons convicted of drug offenses and in possession and/or carrying or in range of firearms?

Does the federal law over rule the state law and if so how the heck does two convicted felons get away with having multiple firearms on their premises?

I assume no matter rifle, shot gun or hand gun its all considered firearms with the exception of the antique firearms?

No felon may possess a firearm of any type, anywhere, any time. Federal laws override state laws.

Felons aren't monitored 24/7. If they want a firearm, I'm sure they know how to get them. I'm certain they don't just walk into their local sporting goods store and buy one.

All states are in agreement with fedeal law on this one. Conviction of any felony violent or not voids the 2nd amendment to the offender unless amnesty can be obtained.

Without knowing what you are talking about it is hard to answer.

In MO as in all other states and under federal law unless a convicts gun rights are returned by the court it is illegal for them to have guns.
