Uniontown Felon Pleads Guilty to Unlawful Possession of Firearm and Ammunition

PITTSBURGH, Pa. - A resident of Uniontown, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty in federal court to charges of possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon, United States Attorney Troy Rivetti announced today.

Gregory Corbin, 21, pleaded guilty before United States District Judge W. Scott Hardy to two counts of violating federal firearm offenses.

In connection with the guilty plea, the Court was advised that, on two separate dates during April 2025 and June 2025, Corbin, knowing he had previously been convicted of a felony, possessed a firearm and ammunition, with the second instance being during Corbin's arrest for his federal firearm charge. Federal law prohibits possession of a firearm or ammunition by a convicted felon.

Judge Hardy scheduled sentencing for March 9, 2027. The law provides for a maximum total sentence of up to 15 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, or both. Under the federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed is based upon the seriousness of the offenses and the prior criminal history of the defendant. Corbin will remain in custody pending sentencing.

Assistant United States Attorney Nicole A. Stockey is prosecuting this case on behalf of the government.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives conducted the investigation that led to the prosecution of Corbin.
