I'm 18 and would like to purchase a handgun. How do I go about doing this in Alaska?

Ok so if I’m 18 and a friend of mine is 21, can he purchase the pistol from the store, and then sell it to me? I think the law is 21, but I heard something about that only applying to registered dealers or something. I have never been arrested, and my buddy who would purchase the pistol actually works at the sport and goods department in this grocery store and handles the sales of guns. thanks

ok so it says this:

Handguns

* Permit to purchase handgun? No
* Registration of handguns? No
* Licensing of owners of handguns? No
* Permit to carry handguns? No*

* It is unlawful to sell or transfer a firearm capable of being concealed on one’s person to anyone who has been convicted of a felony or adjudicated a delinquent minor for conduct that would constitute a felony if committed by an adult. It is an affirmative defense that 10 years or more has elapsed since the unconditional discharge on the prior offense.

* It is unlawful to knowingly sell or transfer a firearm to a person whose physical or mental condition is substantially impaired as a result of an intoxicating liquor or drug, or to sell a firearm to a person less than 18.
"Jsatt" – this is from the official gun laws in Alaska – " Registration of handguns? No "

so apparently in my state, registration of a hand gun is not required

I’m mainly purchasing it for protection because I got robbed at gun point a couple months ago. Ok so if I’m 18 and a friend of mine is 21, can he purchase the pistol from the store, and then sell it to me?

"david" This is a gift from a friend that is 21. there’s no law keeping him from giving me the gun as a gift. "straw purchase" there’s no way to prove that. hey it’s Christmas and is the time for gift exchanges.

NEW YORK TO PENNSYLVANIA PISTOL TRANSFER?

admin — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 01:42:44 +0000

I sold a pistol to a Pa. resident and I live in NY. My FFL dealer says I can ship it direct to an FFL dealer in PA. using just my driver’s license. I have a copy of the PA. dealer FFL. Is this true?
But my county clerk says I need a receipt from a NY. FFl showing that it was sold to have it remove from my permit!?

gun control act of 1968?

admin — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 06:54:57 +0000

What was the real reason for making it so a 18 year old can buy a shotgun or rifle but you have to be 21 to buy a handgun? I can cut down a shotgun and conceal it just as well as a handgun. If I were a crazy mass murderer I could do far more damage with a scoped bolt action rifle than with a pistol. We should be allowed to buy a pistol at age 18. So why did they make it law we must be 21?

How do I transport an unloaded pistol to upstate New York safely & legally?

admin — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 00:00:58 +0000

I know NY state have insanely complex gun control law and regulation. I plan to move to upstate New York to reside. I come from a Western state that’s very liberal in gun rights law. I will live in a house and securing the pistol in storage will make me feel comfortable in heightened security. Amtrak has a policy that clearly prohibit any firearm even in secured packaging. So the only option is to ship the unloaded firearm securely through FedEx or UPS. Can I ship the unloaded pistol in a locked container inside a tight package from UPS/FedEx location to another UPS/FedEx location & sign confirmation upon pick-up or do I need to obtain the license for a non-resident (unlikely)? If I become a legal resident after at least 6 months to a year, can the unloaded pistol be shipped to me by a relative or FFL dealer, provided I hold a valid license?

I am traveling to Minnesota next week (from WI) and would like to take my firearm (pistol), can I?

admin — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 23:38:23 +0000

I have no conceal carry license in MN.
I would be transporting the firearm, unloaded, and in a case in my trunk.
The ammunition would be stored in a different bag in the trunk.
When at the hotel, the pistol, unloaded, no ammunition present, would be stored in the case, in my hotel safe.

Am I good?

Handgun purchase after completing two years of probation in S.C.?

admin — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 02:24:26 +0000

I had probation for non violent assault. It was a misdemeanor charge. I was sentenced to two years in a S.C. prison, but immediately suspended to 2 years of probation. I Sold all of my firearms as instructed by my probation officer. I have now served two years and have been released. I have paid my debt to society. release date was Jan 27th. I went to buy a pistol today because I thought, that i was okay to. I went to a licensed gun dealer and voluntarily filled out the forms. about ten minutes later I was declined by the NICS. I don’t understand what the problem is? does anyone have any pertinent information? Thanks in advance for the help.
P.S. this charge has nothing to do with domestic violence…..thanks
