hello-
I was convicted of multiple felonies for theft charges almost 10 years ago. I made crucial/instant changes and am now a successful business owner and upstanding citizen.
I was recently restored my gun rights by the circuit court and have also received a CHL from the sheriffs department.
My question is, my attorney told me to hold off on purchasing firearms from an FFL until we do a full expungement and that the restoration does not allow me to purchase new guns from gun stores. I don't get why? My signed judgement says to "purchase and possess" has been restored. I know their is a good reason but I don't understand what it is. I was "gifted" a new firearm from a family member which is completely legal but I want to purchase from a local FFL. Please explain or help...
