Federal laws prohibit handgun ownership and possession for those under 21. One more thing you can thank Billy Clinton for.

Actually, you can not buy a handgun if you are under 21. But in many states you can own one, for example, your parents could give you one. Check you local laws.

I had to wait until I was 21. Dad wouldnt get me one.
But since then just a little over a year I have bought 7 of them. Waiting sucks but it isnt really all that bad. |

Federal law is 18 to possess, 21 to purchase.

Actually like another said it is 18 years old. Youth Handgun Safety Act (BATF) section ATF I 5300.2 (7-98). (3) Federal law prohibits, except in certain limited circumstances, anyone under 18 years of age from knowingly possessing a handgun, or any person from selling, delivering, or otherwise transferring a handgun to a person under 18. |

18 to possess.
Buy is 21. But your parents can get one and "keep" it for you. CRC |

In PA a parent can transfer a firearm to their kids without paperwork, so my dad gave me mine at 20. |
