With very few exceptions, felony convictions cannot be removed from a person’s criminal record. If a felony is expunged, then the effect will result in that person being able to hunt with a firearm. If a person is pardoned from a felony offense, and the pardon erases the felony, then the felony would no longer exist and the person would be able to hunt with a gun.
