All a felon has to do to get their gun rights restored is appear before the appropriate judge in the state in which they were convicted. Judges are usually amenable to restoration, unless the ex-con was convicted of a gun crime, or used a gun in the commission of their crime.

It should be noted that ex-cons are often intensely aware of the right of self-defense and gun rights, and those on the straight and narrow are often strong advocates of gun rights, because they have seen a lot of people they want to be able to defend themselves against, if attacked.

In theory, that's great. In practice... it's not quite that simple.

Nothing about our injustice system is.

That will NEVER work! The FEDERAL government will NOT recognize any restoration of a felon’s rights that THEY did not approve..and they have outlawed funding for that purpose for over 10 years! NOT happening!
