Any citizen of this country regardless of age should be able to own and carry a weapon without and type of permit or permission from the government or state period. Yep.

If they're good enough to die for their country they're good enough to do anything else. Either that or don't draft them till they're 21. You might have missed it but the draft ended almost fifty years ago. It was only suspended. The draft laws are all in place, and can be reactivated at any time.

You're either legally an adult or not. I'd vote for 21 personally. Agree 100%^^^^^^^ You might have missed that although the draft may have ended, registration for it is still a requirement and the feral govt will still hold your life and future hostage if you don't.

i started packing around a revover, rifle, shotgun somewhere around the age of 11. course i was raised a long time ago in arizona.
the rat pack i ran with we all had motor scooters. and ran all over the county chasing dove, rabbits, etc.
no body thought anything of it.
I think i was around 11 when i purchased my first shotgun.
nobody got shot either.

The permit has a couple of extra restrictions, but 18 year olds can now get concealed carry permits in Utah. The Governor signed the bill yesterday. Good, if you're old enough to die fighting for this country you're damn well old enough to carry a gun and have cold beer too! Absolutely.

I concur with this decision. Especially if one is required to register for selective service at 18, old enough to vote, etc, they should have their constitutional rights as well.

Ain't happy to hear it.
There's a reason the drinking age was raised to 21.
JMHO There's a reason alright,lots of kids being raised by pussies and school teachers. One is either legally an adult, or they are not, period. I don't give a flying puck what age 'they' pick, but when one is an adult they should get all the 'perks' that go along with it. If one isn't responsible enough at 18, they ain't gonna be at 21 either.

Whatever the age is, it should be nationwide as to not screw up reciprocity.

18 year olds in Wyoming don't need a permit to carry concealed. But as far as ages go, dirty movies, drinking, smoking, drafting, leaving home, getting married, voting, etc, pick one damn age and let 'em loose. Old enough to join the army old enough to have a beer, If you're adult enough to vote, your old enough to carry. But as as far as concealed goes none of you should need a stinking permit.

They're just GD cloudy in the head!

I will be 60 in May so I don't think I will be bothered by anybody for it.

JMHO Yeah, it was because a bunch of prohibitionist ninnies called MADD basically took over our government & there wasn't anyone with enough balls to stand up to them and demand the right thing be done. We're pretty much the only country in the civilized world that makes an adult wait until 21 to legally drink alcohol. We're also the one with the most problems with alcohol, which the 21 year old drinking age directly contributes to. Prohibit something and you'll make it more desirable.

I remember talking to a girl in college and she said it was easier for her to get cocaine/meth, whatever, than it was to buy beer.
