You can buy rifles at 18 I believe.

Pistols at 21

I know

I'm also saving all my pay checks

Not sure where y’all live but round here we all have guns

I live in Maine so we have similar gun laws

Have to 21 for a pistol. That’s about the only restriction

You see? This is what I'm talking about. Pistols at 21 but rifles at 18? This is absolute insane. Be consistent, damn it. Equalize the age criteria for all types of firearm and lower it to at least by 16, and give them the proper discipline. Start from small, around 5 with toy firearms, then when the dude is 16, help him or her manage the real deal.

No permit conceal carry is ok here too 😉

Pistol restrictions make some kind of sense in how they're argued

I only wish we had a better castle doctrine law tho

I don't support them, but they make sense

The big concern is concealability.

Kids don’t need pistols period

in my opinion have one adult age

Want to get married? 16 or 21

Well they shouldn't be there. There are a variety of pistols out there that I'm sure are reasonably appropriate for an 18 year old to handle.

want alcohol? 16 or 21

I mean the ideal solution is just mandating Firearm safety and knowledge in a couple of courses to be taught in schools

want to buy guns? 16 or 21

@Smash Boy handling it isn’t the issue. More sneaking it into a school is

want to vote?

16

or

21

Alcohol is different than firearm. Alcohol has some health risks involved that are reasonable for some age restrictions. But firearm? You have a moral right to bear one.

just have one age

its a civil right

We live in country of laws and they’re always changing. You used to be able to drink alcohol on military bases before 21. That’s gone now too.

lucky bastards

I've owned guns my entire life my grandpa bought me a .410 when I was born learned how to shoot at 6 or 7

so its kind of hard to say to a law abiding citizen that they cant have certain rights because reasons

I mean sure, but that's a matter of private institution policy, which is in their right to do. Some institutions allow for an open carry pistol while others want it concealed carry. To be honest, schools should allow firearms, the biggest mistake a school can make is to have all people there disarmed and in serious danger from murderers.

That’s bc you’re privileged @PRIVILEGED N.P.C.

My son has had guns since he was born

😉

i cant even get a crossbow smh

Stop breaking the law asshole-liar liar

Heck you even have a moral right to keep and bear a samurai katana.

I know my dads friend had a policy with his kids with guns

Get a muzzle loader I think you can get one at 16
