Question
I had a felony 13 years ago for grand theft 2nd degree and had all my rights restored can I apply for a concealed weapon permit?
Franchetta,
Thanks for asking me about this. If your rights have been restored and the felony is not on your record, then you should be able to apply for a CCW with good results.
If you have problems then contact legal help.
Good luck.
Dan

I will answer questions on the 2nd amendment from both historical and present day applications. I will answer questions on the right to keep and bear arms and the significance of this right. I will not answer questions that require legal interpretation or those that are outside of my areas of expertise.
