Federal court rules it's not a disqualifying offense in and of itself. Even if there are 2. Details at link below. Prince law office, a 2a lawyer.

I guess the reason that is not necessarily violent. Stupid, but not necessarily a violence event.

In a nutshell. Guy from PA had two DUI convictions. Last one was in 2006...I think. Went to buy a gun within the last year or so and the NICS check denied him. Found out the reason and got himself a couple lawyers. Won the case to be able to purchase.

Unfortunately, going through that process is very, very expensive.
