Brett Michaels and Tommy Lee are now involved in a federal gun probe after taking photos with some guns while in North Carolina.

As you can see in the photo to the left – the two are proud to tote the guns, but unbeknownst to them there is a law in North Carolina saying that anyone with a criminal record may not have a firearm.

Craveonline reports:

” The pair took time out from their US tour prior to playing the state’s Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Charlotte on July 12, and were accompanied to the shooting range by police officers from Rowan County Sheriff’s Office. The only catch: at least one of them may have criminal records which prohibit them from using guns. North Carolina’s Felony Firearms Act declares it an offense “for any person who has been convicted of a felony to purchase, own, possess, or have in his custody, care, or control any firearm.” “

The two are now being investigated by The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms.
