Under Texas law, you must wait 5 years after you have served all punishment to be able to possess a firearm if you have been convicted of a felony. Then only at your place of residence.

If convicted of class a misdemeanor family violence you must also wait 5 years after completion of all punishment.

Texas Penal code Section 46.04

If age is what you are asking about, there is no Texas law stating someone under a certain age can not possess a firearm. It is illegal for someone other than a parent or guardian to give a firearm to someone under 18.

Texas Penal code Section 46.06
