If you cannot buy a gun you will not get a permit. The government has a provision for those cases that are in the gray area (so to speak) in which they give the purchaser a conditional non approval. This allows the gov. 3 additional days to further check your background. They also occasionally offer an appeal form. This must be filled out buy the seller and purchaser and it must include finger prints of the purchaser (print card must be done by law enforcement and signed by them).

A domestic violence arrest will not prevent a purchase unless the case is pending or you were convicted.

A restraining order can only prevent you from purchasing a gun if it in force.

Only felony convictions count. If O.J. Simpson's only brush with the law was his murder trial, he can buy a gun today.

Also Misdemeanor convictions for violence or drugs will prevent a gun purchase for three years after the conviction.
