What is the minimum age to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer in Vermont?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

The minimum age to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer in Vermont is 21 years old. This regulation aligns with federal laws, which establish 21 as the minimum age for purchasing handguns from licensed dealers. The rationale behind this age requirement is based on the recognition that individuals at this age are more likely to be responsible and equipped to handle the complexities and legal responsibilities that come with handgun ownership. While some states may have different minimum ages for other types of firearms, Vermont adheres to the federal standard for handguns, underscoring the importance of a consistent legal framework when it comes to firearm sales and ownership.
