What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Idaho without adult supervision?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. None, there is no age restriction

The correct answer is: 18 years old

The correct answer is that a person must be at least 18 years old to possess and transport a handgun in Idaho without adult supervision. This is aligned with Idaho's firearm laws that specify various age restrictions related to the possession and use of firearms. Those under 18 years old are generally not allowed to possess a handgun on their own, and supervision is required for younger individuals. This regulation aims to ensure that minors are adequately guided in the safe and responsible handling of firearms, recognizing that as individuals reach adulthood, they are deemed more capable of making such decisions independently. While some states may allow younger individuals to have firearm access under certain conditions, Idaho has established this minimum age requirement to promote safety and responsible ownership.
