Contact the Governor's office and/or the local police
department/sheriff, ask about a pardon and/or how to go about
regaining your rights by petition.
I'm sure there is a way to petition for them back.
You don't mention whether the felony was a violent or
nonviolent but I think nonviolent would rate higher on the
possibility of getting them back.
Personally, I think after serving your sentence for any
crime,you've been punished and you should automatically
regain your rights.If you are a good enough risk to be on the
street,you certainly should be good enough to retain your
birthrights;If you are too dangerous to own a weapon you
shouldn't be released from prison..Then again I'm not a
legislator with open door criminal policy.....Nor a liberal
who thinks murderers and rapists/kidnappers/child molesters
can be rehabilitated......
Good luck to you.
