Will my weapons permit be denied? Will i not be able to buy a gun? The position for security is FIR officer? They are security officers but are allowed to hold concealed weapons.

You should talk to your current lawyer about your entire record. It sounds like your original charge from 14 won't affect you, as it was dropped.

But if you are currently on probation for possession of cannabis, that may affect a background check for your new job.

It's important to know whether you were adjudicated guilty or if your adjudication was withheld. I don't know from the information you present.
