    Certain persons are prevented by state and\or federal law from possessing firearms. Among those prohibited are persons under 18 years of age (with certain exceptions) and persons convicted of any felony or domestic violence offenses. Courts may also order forfeiture of a firearm found concealed on a person who is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. (RCW 9.41.040, RCW 9.41.098)
