Question: Who can own a gun or weapon?
Answer: Generally speaking, anything that disqualifies you as a voter or a juror, such as conviction of a felony, also legally disqualifies you as a gun owner. This is no coincidence – these three rights and duties are historically and philosophically related. People prohibited from possessing a firearm also include any person who:
• Has been found to be a danger to himself or others. • Has been convicted of a felony in another state. • Is serving a term of probation for a conviction for a domestic violence offense (ARS §13-3101 (6)).
And, a minor may not possess, carry or be in control of a firearm when unaccompanied by an adult (ARS §13-3111 (A)).
