You meet a good looking woman, just perfect to you, but she has one hitch. When she was 18 she committed a felony. Since she is a felon she can't own weapons. Now this woman is very successful in her career and obviously made made something of her life. My questions are if they marry can he keep his firearms If so do they have locked up so she can't access. To be quite honest researching this is very hard. Also our State is not very friendly to restoring a Felons rights, since the Govenor has to pardon the person. The court in Colorado cannot do that.
My initial thought would be that you would still be able to keep your guns. Just because she is a felon doesn't mean she's not allowed around firearms, just that she's not allowed to own them. Actually, since the law says you just can't own them...are you even barred from shooting them? That's probably too deep into a legal argument for our purposes though...
