Felon in the house

[easy]

OK, not my house.

Mother is a felon. Son wants firearm to protect the rest of the family, having problems with jerks across the street. Can son have gun IF mom has NO access to said firearm?

Refs or statutes appreciated.

Short answer: No.

Emphasis added by me.

Depending on how long ago the felony conviction was and what it was for, she could apply for a governor's pardon to restore her gun ownership rights, at least in the state of OK. Other state laws might vary. I remember reading on this when some story aired about how felons can legally apply for their right to firearm ownership to be restored.

What are Oklahoma’s Laws regarding a Law Enforcement Officer’s possession of firearms if there is a convicted felon living in his or her home?

Funny you should ask. Husband of mom/felon is also considered felon IRT first post - and he's a LEO. But he gets gun for work? How's that possible?

I may be mistaken but even bullets are out of the question. The reason I say this is because my brother was an ex-Felon and I found that he could not even possess ammunition.

So... felons can't ride in boats, ships, small planes, or any other conveyance that carries a signal-flare gun?

Nor in the back of a cop car...

So this means that a felon can't ride on any public transportation for fear that someone else may be carrying...

I don't believe a flare gun would be considered a "firearm". Even though it, you know, shoots fire...nevermind.
