  1. 18 years

  2. 21 years

  3. 16 years

  4. 25 years

The correct answer is: 21 years

The minimum age to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer in Vermont is 21 years.

Vermont adheres to this legal standard, ensuring that purchasers of handguns meet this age requirement for reasons related to public safety and responsible firearm ownership.
