What constitutes a prohibited person from possessing a firearm in Alabama?

  1. A person convicted of a felony

  2. A non-resident of Alabama

  3. A person under 21 years old

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: A person convicted of a felony

A person convicted of a felony is considered a prohibited person from possessing a firearm in Alabama because federal law prohibits individuals who have been convicted of a felony from possessing firearms. This restriction is in place to ensure public safety and prevent those with a history of serious criminal activity from having access to firearms. While non-residents of Alabama and individuals under 21 years old may also face restrictions on firearm possession in certain situations, the primary and most significant reason for being a prohibited person is being convicted of a felony.
