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

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

In Idaho, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without supervision is 21 years old. This regulation is in place to ensure that individuals are deemed mature enough to handle firearms responsibly and safely. The law is designed to promote firearms safety and accountability, particularly around the use of handguns, which are often associated with more serious consequences if mishandled. While individuals can possess and use firearms under the age of 21 in some circumstances, such as for hunting or under parental supervision, the specific age requirement for possessing a handgun independently is set at 21. This helps to balance individual rights with public safety considerations in the handling of firearms.
