    You probably need to give a little more detail. You say gun charge but you don't say how. You were caught concealing? You own an illegal gun? You threatened someone with it? It's a handgun? A rifle?
    Some offenses will break Federal law and that becomes a whole different situation.
    We need details to give you a better answer.

    Odiin7 is right. I assumed it was possession of an unlicensed hand gun.

    I agree, there are dozens of "gun charges".

    And there does not have to be a warrant if you were just caught with the gun and the officer arrested you then.
