Yes, with parental consent
No
Yes, for hunting and safety courses
Yes, but supervised by an adult

The correct answer is: Yes, for hunting and safety courses

In Vermont, individuals under 18 are permitted to possess a firearm specifically for hunting and safety courses. This allowance is rooted in the state's culture of hunting and outdoor activities, which often involve youth engagement in these practices. The state has provisions that support youth education and responsibility in handling firearms, particularly through structured programs focused on safety, training, and responsible use. While parental consent or adult supervision may be involved in those contexts, the primary focus here is on the specific allowance for hunting and educational courses, making it clear that the law recognizes the importance of teaching safe and responsible firearm usage from a young age.
