So that speeding ticket I got a few years ago shouldn't be used to deny me my rights after all. LOL! Remember the good old days when it was felons that were restricted?

They can now take away your Second Amendment rights for littering and jaywalking? Are you kidding me?

There should be NO weapons restrictions on any free person. Anyone who can’t be trusted to be armed should not be running around loose.

I think the discrepancy is on the definition of a felony, federal law says you lose your gun rights if you are convicted of a crime in which you could be imprisoned for over 1 year, which in most cases would be a felony, however some states have misdemeanors which carry the possibility of over a year in prison. So under federal law even though you were never convicted of a felony, you would still lose your gun rights because the potential sentence was over a year.
