If more than 5 years have passed since completing their prison sentence (including parole or probation), the law allows possessing a firearm at home.
For those with more than one conviction, the court may restore firearms rights two years after completion of sentence for most felonies, or after 10 years for a serious felony (such as murder or sexual assault). For a person convicted of a “dangerous felony” firearms rights may only be restored by pardon.

For instance, the individual must be carrying a firearm on their person, they cannot keep it in the glove box and have a convicted felon in the car.
