    Does anyone know what are the stipulations of a 18 year old man owning a pistol in the Great state of Texas. I know that they cant conceal carry but what are the matters of them transporting the pistol to and from the range, Thanks in advance.

    Can own it if legaly qualified, but cannot purchase handgun or ammo, if they are in the military they can obtain a CHL, however still cannot purchase a handgun or ammo....

    Almost. Cannot purchase from a licensed dealer. Federal law makes NO comment about ownership, but rather possession and transferring.

    You can't purchase from anyone with an FFL, or a business or anything. Academy, Bass Pro, Dicks, etc. However you can legally buy a handgun from a private seller, i.e. one you might find on here. Also, you can carry a gun around in your car at 18, just can't conceal it on your person. Its the safe transportation law or somethin like that. Im about to buy a WWII 1911 after I get another $500 or so, and im 18.

    Im suprised you didnt catch that Jk and start a whole nother arugment about proper thread titles.


    I guess you didn't notice the spelling in the original title. Then again, I don't think you pay attention to spelling. :1zhelp:

    But now that you mention it...... :p

    I noticed it just couldnt figure out how to fix it and im not a expert computer ninja nor spelling bee winner by any means, hey i didnt mean to hurt your guys feelers in that other post man for that i apologize to you and alan I guess i shoulda thought about the word nazi b4 I wrote it. I was pretty much telling the op that we had to ride the prices out till they go down and nothing more than that, I think people misinterpret stuff when they cant talk eye to eye.

    My feelers are fine. :p

    I use FireFox (I think IE has it too) and use the built in spell check. Find the red underlined words, right click and correct. I couldn't live without it.
