(I really hope this is the right forum)

I was at a gun shop yesterday and some of the guys were talking about 18 year olds legally owning handguns on their own.

I am 18 and would really like to own a handgun

I did a little digging and could only find that an 18yo can own a handgun if it is purchased privately (non FFL dealer), inhierited, or given as a gift.

Is this true?
