It depends on how old the child is and what you mean by "give." In the U.S. a person has to be 21 or older to own or purchase a handgun, but people under 21 can possess handguns for various legal activities, for instance, target shooting or hunting.

What age can you carry a gun in your car?

State law does not give an age. But under that section it states if you are "prohibited by law from possessing a firearm" you can not carry a handgun in your vehicle (among others). Under Federal law it states someone under 18 can not possess a handgun without parental consent. So it is a safe bet that you can not carry a handgun in your vehicle if under 18.


What age are you allowed to have a handgun regeisterd in your name?

It depends: most U.S. states don't require registration and there is no national registration.
