    Marriage,Felon,Rights?
    I own a number of firearms and I plan on marrying a person convicted of a felony. Will I have to get rid of and or take certain steps/measures to be able to keep my firearms in my possession? And will I be able to purchase more firearms in the future while being married to this felon?

    Federal and perhaps (wherever you are) state law prohibits a felon from possessing firearms. It doesn't limit the felon's spouse from doing so.

    Your fiancé is not a child. He/she should know that if you leave your firearms lying around he/she will get in trouble for touching them. I wouldn't think such an arrangement would be cause for concern. To be safe, get a gun safe and keep the key or combination to yourself.

    I see no problem with your purchasing additional firearms.
