Federal law requires one to be 21 years old to purchase handguns from an FFL (licensed dealer) and 18 for the purchase of long guns. Federal law and most states allow 18 to 21 year olds to purchase handguns from individuals (but not dealers). A few states require all gun sales to be through licensed dealers.
In Texas parents can decide what age their child should be to own a gun as per Texas Penal Code.

∙ 13y agoThere is no gun licence in Maryland. You must be 18 to buy Title 1 long barreled weapons (your 'average' shotgun or rifle) and 21 to buy handguns and Title II NFA items (rifles with barrels under 16 inches, shotguns with barrels under 18 inches, transferrable full auto weapons, suppressors, AOWs, etc), if you can get approval for the NFA items (in Maryland, it's doubtful).

∙ 12y agoIt depends on where you are. In the U.S. a person of any age can possess a handgun under limited circumstances. A person under the age of 18 can possess a handgun for sporting purposes or target shooting (or self defense).

∙ 14y agoWell, not exactly. If you were to, oh...I don't know...take them to hunting lessons for instance, they would teach them how to handle a gun, bow and arrow, ect, ect, ect. I suppose if you were hunting with them, if you both were licensed in the art of hunting, it would be okay. As long as they are only hunting animals, it would be fine. Hope this helps!
