What constitutes a 'prohibited person' under Alabama law from possessing a firearm?

  1. Anyone under the age of 21

  2. Non-citizens of the United States

  3. Persons convicted of a felony

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: Persons convicted of a felony

In Alabama, a 'prohibited person' from possessing a firearm is someone who has been convicted of a felony. This disqualification is in line with federal law that prohibits felons from possessing firearms. This restriction is in place to help prevent individuals with a history of serious criminal behavior from having access to firearms, which could pose a significant risk to public safety. While the other options may have their own firearm restrictions under various circumstances, the correct and most direct answer regarding prohibited persons under Alabama law is individuals convicted of a felony.
