Wyoming honors restored firearm rights after felonies

Wyoming recognizes firearm rights restored under the laws of the place where your out-of-state felony conviction occurred. This removes Wyoming’s restriction on using or possessing firearms based on that conviction, whether violent or nonviolent. Firearm restoration alone does not restore voting, jury service, or public office rights. The convicting jurisdiction’s laws must also restore those rights. The law took effect immediately upon becoming law.
