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

18 years old
19 years old
21 years old
There is no age limit

The correct answer is: 18 years old

In Idaho, the law stipulates that individuals must be at least 18 years old to legally possess a handgun without any supervision. This age requirement is established to ensure that those handling firearms have reached a stage of maturity where they can understand the responsibilities and legal implications of gun ownership. While some states have different age requirements for handgun possession, Idaho's laws emphasize that individuals under 18 are considered minors and are not permitted to possess a handgun independently. Consequently, the other choices do not align with Idaho’s firearm laws regarding the age of gun possession. This specific law is in place to promote safe and responsible firearm usage among adults.
