FWIW under federal law, a convicted felon can possess an antique gun manufactured prior to January 1, 1899, or a modern reproduction that's not designed to accept modern metallic-cartridge ammo. These aren't defined as "firearms" under the GCA, and are therefore legal for convicted felons to possess, unless otherwise prohibited by state law.
