As far as I know you MUST be 21 to own a handgun.

To the best of my knowlege, federal law says that you must be 18 to own a handgun. And be 21 to purchase one from a dealer. This would seem to indicate that you can do a private transfer at 18 if a guy is willing to sell to you and there aren't any state/local laws prohibiting this. I could be wrong though...

the federal law is screwy. I bought my first handgun at 18 from a private party. I sold a handgun to a friend who was 19, and the Sheriff Deputies in 2 counties tried to bust him for it, only to find out it was LEGAL!!
