In Texas, to purchase a shotgun or rifle, you must be at least 18 years old and provide valid identification. Federal law requires that buyers undergo a background check through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) when purchasing from a licensed dealer. There are no state-mandated waiting periods, and private sales do not require a background check. Additionally, individuals with certain criminal convictions or mental health issues may be prohibited from purchasing firearms.
