How can i legally obtain a handgun in texas as an 18 yr old, the law states i can buy rifles and shotguns but i cannot purchase a handgun until im of 21 years old
i cant really get someone to buy it for me due to it being illegal to sell/give a handgun to an 18 year old.
>plz halp
Have someone buy it for you, ignore the law.
You wait three years?
Or you convince a male relative to buy the gun you want right now and they will wait three years before selling it to you. That's not advised, though. Since it's illegal. You shouldn't do this, ever. No one should.
You should not do this.

As I understand it, you can legally buy a handgun from a private sale but not an FFL, or have a direct blood family member give it to you as a "gift"
You're human garbage, please kill yourself.

Buy from a private sale.

I'm not sure about Texas law unfortunately, but look into private sales, or get a parent to "gift" it to you. My father did that with his old Sig 229 for me, and I love it to this day. Granted I don't carry it these days, it was still my first pistol.
If I'm not mistaken, handgun purchased can be made at 18 through private sales.
you could try your luck at a gun show or some other private sale. and if you want to cc, forget about it

Private sale, or ask a parent to buy you one as a gift.

Consider not going to jail.

There's nothing illegal about an 18 year old to own a pistol.
black powder cap and ball revolvers.
Just wait. There will come a time you will wish you were 3 years younger. Enjoy what you have while you have it.

you do realize that you can own a handgun at 18 you just can't purchase one until your 21 right? The law is stupid but you're not doing anything illegal. Just get somebody to buy it for you.

Wouldn't that technically be a straw purchase, unless it was purchased as a gift?
>>31777957
Private sale, however you're going to have problems buying ammo unless your parents or another person over 21 buys it for you.
That's what I did and I just shot my friends ammo.

dont you need i buy caps as well as powder and ball?
i mean i could probably make powder here and get balls but the cap is gonna be a different story unless is just an advanced flintlock
