I am 15. I believe in a constitutional right to bear arms. I do not need a gun, but I believe that if Clinton (and perhaps Obama) is elected, then some sort of gun control act will be put into action. I would much rather sell the firearm in a couple years, then want to have one, and not be able to buy it.
This summer I will be taking firearm safety classes, and will get a job to save 00 by the end of the year for the purchase of the rifle. (Possibly an AR-15)
My question is, is it legal for a minor to posses an otherwise legal firearm in the state of Texas? My parents would buy it, the question is if I can own it. Would it be better to keep the rifle in storage until I turn 18?
Thank you.
Why do I want a firearm? I don’t really want one NOW, but there is a very large chance that there will be increased gun control, and I, as a law abiding US citizen, will not be able to purchase one in the future.
I personally do not subscribe the whole "Lets make MORE laws because the criminals obviously will follow those, because, you know, it’s the law.
