Can I safely possess a firearm without risking being arrested if I committed felony 10 years ago?

10 years ago, I committed felony forgery in the state of Wyoming. Six years ago, I completed my probation sentence and have not had any problems with the law since. Many of my family and friends like to target shoot for recreation, and I would like to do this as well. According to my situation, Wyoming Statute 6-8-102 (below) appears to be okay with me possessing a firearm. I've been told that it is a federal law that I cannot possess a firearm. W.S. 6-5-204(b) defines a criminal activity against an officer. Universal Citation: WY Stat § 6-8-102 (1997 through Reg Sess)Any person who has previously pleaded guilty to or been convicted of committing or attempting to commit a violent felony or a felony under W.S. 6-5-204(b), and has not been pardoned and who uses or knowingly possesses any firearm is guilty of a felony punishable by imprisonment for not more than three (3) years, a fine of not more than five thousand dollars ($5,000.00), or both.
