The Question No One here Wants to Ask

[MarkCO]

I might be full of shit here, but isn't a shotgun the only real gun you can legally buy if you're only 18 years old? Hand guns and those scary nasty black guns are 21 years old, right?

Small game no lower limit, Big game is 12, Drive is 16, Long guns and voting is 18, Handguns and alcohol are 21.

I just realized that there is really only one thing I REALLY enjoy doing that does not have an age limit or license required...and it is still free.

You'll go blind doing that.

YES! Sister Martha told me that in 6th grade when she caught me looking down her top :-)

Is 18 and 21 a State or Fed law?

Is 18 and 21 a State or Fed law?

Federal. GCA 1968, IIRC. It limits purchases of firearms from dealers to 21 or greater, but carves out an exception for long guns and 18-year-olds.

(IIRC, you can buy a pistol or a receiver in a private sale at 18 in CO, or at least before requiring every transfer to go through a FFL.)
