Is it legal for individuals convicted of a felony to possess a firearm in New Hampshire?

  1. Yes, after serving their sentence

  2. No, it is not legal

  3. Yes, if the felony was non-violent

  4. Yes, but only after a certain number of years have passed

The correct answer is: No, it is not legal

Individuals convicted of a felony in New Hampshire are not allowed to possess firearms, regardless of the type of felony or the time passed since their sentence. This is due to federal laws that prohibit felons from possessing firearms and because New Hampshire does not have any specific laws that would allow for felons to regain their right to possess firearms. Thus, options A, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest the possibility of possession under certain circumstances.
