No. You must be 21 to legally purchase a handgun, whether from a dealer or private seller. The federal law is quite clear on that.
At age 18, a resident of Oklahoma may purchase a handgun from another resdient of Oklahoma if that person is not a gun dealer (private party sale) To buy a handgun from a dealer (gun shop, pawn shop, etc) Federal law requires you be 21 years old anywhere in the US. OK will not issue a concealed weapons license to persons under 21. Federal law does not permit the purchase of handgun ammo from a business unless you are 21 (exception for .22 rimfire ammo)
Purchases from a dealer are governed by Federal law, not state. 18 for rifle or shotgun, 21 for handgun.
To purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer, or from a venue at which 25 or more guns are available for sale, you must be 21+ To purchase handgun ammunition, you must be 21+ To get a CHL in Oregon, you must be 21+ To own a handgun in Oregon, you must be 18+ Private party sales are legal in Oregon, provided that both parties are legally able to purchase / possess the firearms in question (not a felon, above the legal age, etc.). In theory, then, a person above the age of 18 could legally purchase a handgun as part of a private party sale. They just cannot carry it, or transport it loaded.
Anyone 18 or older can purchase a firearm in Texas (from a private seller). Only licensed dealers can not sell a handgun or handgun ammo to someone under 21.
By federal law you may own or possess a handgun at age 18, but you cannot purchase handgun ammo or a handgun from a dealer until age 21.

18
18 for a shotgun/hunting rifle, and 21 for a handgun.
21 ******************* ................. You can purchase a handgun at the age of 18. The second amendment right says we have the right to bear arms, not that we have the right to rifles at 18 and handguns at 21. There is a law stating you have to be 21 to purchase a handgun from a DEALER! You can purchase a handgun 100% legally from a private party sell. ( Anyone that isn't selling the handgun from a business.) ******************** Both of above CAN be correct. To purchase from a Dealer, Federal law requires you be 21. To purchase from a private party, SOME state laws require you to be 21, some require you to be at least 18- so it depends on where you live.
Generally it is 21.
