A: Sorry, but you are prohibited from obtaining a GFL for life, unless the General Assembly changes the law.

Q: I was convicted of a non-drug related felony years ago. I have had a clean record since then. What can I do to get my firearms rights back?
A: Contact the office that is in charge of granting pardons in the state you were convicted in. If it was Georgia that is the State Board of Pardons and Paroles.
So if i smoked some weed back in 1970 and got caught, I cant get a GFL for the rest of my life, but if my buddy raped and brutally murdered a 13 yr old child, he can possibly get a pardon and get one? Correct me if im understanding this wrong
