C.  Eligible Persons

1. Federal Law Requirements

As a general rule, the following categories of persons are ineligible to receive or
possess a firearm under federal law:

…

d. The person is an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana, or any
depressant, stimulant, or narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance;

…
