Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
No.
Commercial firearms transactions go through a special FBI database. The database used is not one that is available to other law enforcement agencies. Some of the information in the database is available to outside agencies through other files, but not all of it. For example, if a police officer was to run a "normal" criminal history on a person, it would show prior felony convictions but not other things like if you had been adjudicated mentally ill, renounced your citizenship, etc.
Chances are you are the best person to know if you are no longer allowed to own a firearm. If you have a specific question about a possible prohibition, feel free to ask.

For what? Walking in public?
If you were intoxicated to the point of being charged with something it is unlikely the officers would have dropped you off at home.
I don't know, but NY and NJ sure do like to tell people what to do. It seems just living is either illegal or nearly taxed to death in those states. You should probably check with the local jurisdiction.
I would highly recommend contacting the state attorney general's office and the BATFE for information on the related state and federal laws.
