Do you agree with age requirements to own/carry firearms?

[Fear Itself]

In my family we were taught responsibility at an early age. My father never had to question what firearm I was carrying because of some "legal" requirement. This was because his requirement had long since been met and the ramifications with the local PD didn't worry him because he knew, as well as myself, that his punishment for my doing something careless would be very severe for me. I have been in love with firearms since I have memories. By the time I purchased my first car at 14 I had already bought, traded and sold more pistols, rifles and shotguns than would fill a truck bed.

TEACH your children.

You can join the Military at 17 , but you must wait till 18 to vote, 21 to drink or buy a handgun, 25 to rent a car... How about some consistency...

Most places allow 15 or 16 year olds to drive. About 100 people are killed every single day in the U.S. in car accidents and of course a disproportionate number of them are young. And yes, there is no Constitutional right to drive.

I see people at range in 40s and 50s that should not be able to buy one

If you are old enough to fight and die for your country, you are old enough to own and carry a firearm in my opinion

And even carry on base!

Amen!!!!!!
