Under federal law you must be 18 to purchase rifles or shotguns, 21 to buy handguns and ammunition from a licensed dealer.

US Code Title 18 Section 922

You can purchase a handgun, rifle, or shotgun from a private seller at 18.

Texas Penal Sode Section 46.06

To actually carry a handgun with you (concealed) you must have a conceal-carry license. But you can carry a handgun on or about your person in your vehicle without a license IF:

1 it is your vehicle or a vehicle under your control

2 it must be concealed

3 not committing any crime other than class c traffic

4 legally able to possess the handgun

5 not a member of a street gang

Texas Penal Code Section 46.02

With very few exceptions- rifle and shotgun, yes. Handgun, no. One of the exceptions are the members of the US Military that have a permanent duty station in Texas, but another state is their home of record. The ATF has ruled that those persons have more than one state of residence for purposes of buying a gun.

No, it is not illegal. There are no laws in any state that say that one cannot own a gun.
