What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Montana without the supervision of a parent or guardian?

  1. 14 years

  2. 16 years

  3. 18 years

  4. 21 years

The correct answer is: 18 years

In Montana, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without the supervision of a parent or guardian is 18 years. This aligns with both state laws and the federal regulations regarding the ownership and use of firearms. At the age of 18, individuals are considered adults in many legal contexts, including the realm of firearm possession. This age restriction is designed to ensure that individuals have reached a level of maturity and responsibility to handle firearms safely and effectively. Understanding this regulation is crucial for compliance with state laws and for promoting responsible firearm ownership.
