I am 18. I live in Texas. I recently bought the Tokarev Tar12. I was wondering can I legally buy a handgun on here and legally possess it in Texas?

Question

Trin K. · Answer

No, the age of 21 remains the federal legal age to buy a handgun or handgun ammunition from an FFL (Buds and any gun store are FFL). However, these rules do not apply to private sellers, who can legally sell any firearm to someone as long as they are over 18 and qualify as a legal gun owner. Private sellers mean individual to individual sale, not business. I hope this helps
