How old do you need to be to get a gun permit?

Answer 1

It depends on where you are. In the United States, you have to be 21 or older to own a handgun and 18 or older to own a shotgun or rifle.

In most states, you can possess a handgun or long gun for any legal purpose like target shooting or hunting at any age provided you are under direct supervision of a parent or an authorized adult.

You should check your local statutes for the exact information.

Answer 2

We cannot answer that without knowing where you are located, and the type of license. Laws vary from one state or nation to another, and your spelling of "licence" would indicate that you are not in the US. Please repost with some more information- location (nation and state or province), type of gun (rifle, shotgun, handgun), purpose of licence (possess, carry concealed, sell guns) and we will try to get you a valid answer.

Answer 3

The answer is in two parts:

1. In the U.S. you must be 21 to purchase or own a handgun.

2. In most states, you do not have to register a handgun. Only 4 or 5 states require it, so you don't have to unless you live in one of those states. If you're not sure about your state law, check with a local reputable gun shop and they can tell you.
