FAQ
Pepper spray, stun guns, tasers, knives, and non-lethal firearms are some of the top weapons that felons can consider for self-defense. However, it's important to understand the legal considerations and consequences associated with owning weapons as a felon.
Handguns are the easiest to handle, carry, and store, making them a popular choice for home defense. Rifles offer more accuracy and stopping power, but they can be challenging to use in close quarters. Shotguns are the most versatile and powerful option, suitable for both short-range and long-range shooting.
A convicted felon in California has no right to own or possess a firearm. I realize you're saying the gun belongs to someone else, but there is a legal principle called "constructive possession." That is, the gun doesn't have to belong to you for you to be charged with possession or for you to be convicted of it.

To restore your gun rights after a specified felony, you must: Wait five years after paying all fines, serving all terms of imprisonment, and completing probation or parole. Petition the circuit court in the county where you live.
The Second Amendment Permits The Disarming of “Dangerous” Felons. Each year, more than 8,000 people are convicted for unlawful possession of a firearm under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g). About 90% of those cases arose from gun possession by a felon.
The Second Amendment does not protect any right, it prohibits government from infringing on a right. The idea is that a felon has lost his rights, thus government is not infringing on any right by denying felons lawful ownership of guns.
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.
