Gubernatorial Pardon The only sure method currently available in Louisiana for a restoration of federal gun rights is, ironically, circumstances "governor's pardon." This unique kind of pardon expressly restores all rights and returns the given individual to the position he held, as though he had under no circumstances been convicted. Governor's pardons are different from "first-offenders' pardons," which occur automatically after completion of sentence. Traditionally, just a few dozen governor's pardons are awarded every year. Information on trying to get one may be found at the Louisiana Board of Pardons and Parole. The Muzzleloader Alternative There exists a healthy debate approximately whether the federal gun ban for felons pertains to "black powder" guns or muzzleloaders, and that is since the federal gun control laws only apply to "firearms and ammunition." If a muzzleloader isn't considered a firearm, then your federal ban might not apply, and, hence, convicted felons
