It depends on the circumstances of your criminal record. Generally, people with a felony conviction are not able to purchase a firearm, however there are some cases where convicted criminals may be allowed to legally purchase firearms. You will need to check the laws in your state and do a background check to find out if you are able to legally purchase a firearm or not.
