Ok so If I am an 18 and live in a state where an 18-20 year old can legally possess a handgun, but it is illegal for anyone to sell/furnish one to me until I turn 21, can someone who is above 21 purchase it and then sell or give it to me in another state where no such restriction exists? Or does the restriction apply to residency rather than actual place of transfer?

Straw purchase is what you're describing.
I hope you don't have a dog.
Alternatively, if your parents or direct relative wanted to buy it, shoot it a bit, decide they didn't want it, and then later down the line gift it to you for collecting family good boy points...or some shit...THEN it's legal.
Unless your state is a piece of shit.

It has to be a gift. As long as you aren't giving the purchaser money for the weapon it's not a straw purchase- so, know anyone who'll just give you a handgun for free?

What state, OP?

Exactly how illegal is it though, like if it was a relative that purchased it could they prove that I gave them money? (Considering that my current job is payed-in-cash manual labor with another relative)

They probably can't can't prove it, but it's still illegal.

Eh I might just buy a 10/22 or nugget, maybe build a lower tier AR instead or something.
If I really want to do it later on it seems there's enough legal loopholes to not go to jail over it.

If you live in a state that allows private sales, then you may legally purchase one through a private party. All federal law does is make it illegal for you to buy one from a licensed dealer until you're 21.
Go plan school shootings somewhere else

Where do people come up with this shit that its illegal for someone to sell you a handgun? That only applies to FFLs. It took me a 5 seconds of googling to see ohio doesn't require FFLs to transfer handguns.
