I have a felony for theft f-5 in 2004 I'm no longer on probation for this charge and I would like to go deer hunting this year with a gun that I own and I was wondering if I would be able to do this thanks

No, you can't own a gun, so you are not saying here on a public forum that you are committing a felony by owning a firearm?

So you need to sell that gun or give it away before you go to prison for owning it.

You can go hunting with a black powder gun in that particular hunting season though. But if you have a gun and you are a felon you need to dispose of this gun and not have it in your home or you could go to jail for awhile. You can go along with the other hunters and watch them shoot the guns as you are strictly a spectator but you cannot handle their guns or fire them. Also, you cannot be in the same vehicle as the guns. Sorry.
