[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1474199, member: 5151"] I noticed that it got a Public Safety Committee recommendation of DO PASS AS AMENDED (I thought it had only gotten a DO PASS). The introduced version of the bill restored firearm possession rights to those who had been pardoned of a "violent felony" (the law already provided for non-violent felonies). The Committee Substitute amends the non-violent felon part to read as follows: [INDENT]Any person who has previously been convicted of a nonviolent felony in any court of this state or of another state or of the United States, has [B]completed the sentencing and probation period for such conviction[/B], and has not been convicted of any other felony offense since such conviction, shall be considered to have a full and complete pardon by the proper legal authority for the State of Oklahoma and shall have restored the right to possess any firearm or other weapon, the right to apply for and carry a concealed handgun pursuant to the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act and the right to perform the duties of a peace officer, gunsmith, or for firearms repair.[/INDENT] In other words, serving your time for a non-violent felony would not necessarily be a preclusion from a concealed weapons permit.
