FAQ
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.
The 1968 Gun Control Act and subsequent amendments codified at 18 U.S.C. § 921 et seq. prohibit anyone convicted of a felony and anyone subject to a domestic violence protective order from possessing a firearm.
The state offers two different types of certificates that can restore gun rights in some cases. Those seeking to regain their firearm rights must apply for a Certificate of Good Conduct from the New York State Board of Parole or a Certificate of Relief from Disabilities is granted by the court.
A Certificate of Relief from Civil Disabilities is a Certificate issued by a Court or the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision which restores a person's civil right following a conviction. It can also be used to restore a person's firearms rights.
18 U.S.C. 922(g) is the federal law that prohibits anyone ever convicted of any felony to ever possess any firearm either inside or outside of his home. The federal punishment for firearm possession by a felon is up to 10 years in prison.

The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution protects the right to keep and bear arms. Just as in Minnesota, violent felons in Ohio are allowed to apply for restoration of firearms rights after completing their sentences. Section 922(g) is the law that prohibits felons, and certain other groups, from possessing firearms.
