(n) It shall be unlawful for any person who is
under indictment for a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce any firearm or ammunition or receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign
commerce"

Ownership is NOT in that section. It's a shipping-receiving deal

A conviction is a whole different deal though.
