Under what circumstances can a person under 18 possess a handgun in Montana?

With parental supervision for recreational shooting
Alone, if carrying concealed with a permit
Only if they are law enforcement officers
None, it's always illegal

The correct answer is: With parental supervision for recreational shooting

In Montana, state law allows a person under the age of 18 to possess a handgun only in certain circumstances. Option A is the correct answer because it states that if a person under 18 is using a handgun for recreational shooting, they must be under parental supervision. Option B is incorrect because it does not mention the requirement of parental supervision. Option C is incorrect because it only applies to law enforcement officers and does not pertain to the general public. Option D is incorrect because there is an exception for recreational shooting with parental supervision. Overall, the key aspect here is the necessity of parental supervision when a person under 18 possesses a handgun in Montana.
