What kind of state "fines?" They will do a background check on you, and during that check it is likely they will discover the outstanding "fines" that you owe, what happens next is up to the licensing authority. However, they might think that it does not display a good sense of law abiding and responsibility on your part.
Federal law says you must be 21 to purchase a handgun from a dealer. SOME states may permit a person between 18 and 21 to purchase a handgun from a private seller that is NOT a licensed dealer. This varies from state to state- most do not, but check the law in YOUR state- and check the state law for POSSESSION of a handgun by a person under 21.
The answer depends on the context. Usually a "gun permit" means a permit to carry a concealed handgun on your person. Some states (CA I think?) require a registration process in order to purchase a handgun which is sometimes referred to as a "permit". Conceal permits are regulated by state and laws very as many different states we have.
It depends on what you mean. If you live in the U.S. you can only legally purchase a handgun in the state where you live. If you live in one state but want to purchase a handgun in another state, you have to have a licensed gun dealer in the other state ship the handgun to a licenesed gun dealer in your state and then purchase it through the dealer in your state.
The short answer is yes. As long as you have a CCW permit that is valid within whichever state you are currently in, you can have a concealed handgun in your vehicle.
Arizona is an open carry state. If you can legally own a handgun, you can carry it openly without a permit. If you want to carry a concealed handgun, you need a permit.
You may purchase a rifle or shotgun from a licensed dealer in PA. Under Federal law, you may only purchase a handgun in your state of residence. Exception- California law does not permit a Californian to purchase a firearm in any other state.
Depends on the state and the gun. So far as I know, you may own one - or a dozen - hunting rifles or shotguns in virtually every state. The laws on handguns are a lot more strict, but again, it varies by state. In my state (Michigan) you need a permit to buy a handgun, but once you get the permit, you can legally buy and own that handgun. For every additional handgun, you would need an additional permit to purchase. You can own it. But you can't carry it - that is a separate permit, a license to carry it. But basically, if you have no criminal record, you can get that without a whole lot of trouble. If you have neither (in Michigan), owning a handgun is illegal, with only a very few exceptions. The laws vary by state - you need to find out exactly what they are in your state.
It depends on what you mean exactly. You can transport an unloaded handgun in your vehicle while you travel as long as the handgun isn't accessible to you. However, if you have a handgun carry permit, you can carry the gun on your person in some states. That said, you can carry a handgun on your person inside your car in some states without a permit.

To legally purchase a handgun out of state, you must have an FFL dealer ship the handgun to an FFL dealer in your state.
No. If you're in another state, and find a handgun you wish to purchase, then you would have to have it shipped to an FFL licenced dealer in your home state. You would then pay the receiving fee and fill out the Form 4473 with the dealer in your state before you took possession of the handgun. <><><><><> If you mean is there ONE concealed carry permit that is recognized by all 50? No- other than being a serving or retired law enforcement officer- since THAT is covered by Federal law, and overrides state law. Please define what you mean by handgun permit.
