  1. Can You Own or Possess a Firearm in Idaho? Firearm ownership is a constitutionally protected right in the United States, but each state has its own set of laws and regulations governing the possession and ownership of firearms. In Idaho, individuals have the right to own and possess firearms, subject to certain legal requirements. As your trusted Criminal Defense Attorney in Boise, Idaho, We are here to guide you through the intricacies of firearm laws in the state. Understanding Firearm Ownership Laws in Idaho 1.
