Minimum age for handgun purchase
warren209:
What is the minimum age to buy a handgun from an individual in Nebraska? Is it a different age if buying from an FFL?
tstuart34:
21 all handhun purchases. 18 for long guns.

HuskerXDM:
21 to purchase, 18 to possess
SemperFiGuy:
And adding just the tiniest bit of calibration:
>Active duty military personnel under 18.
>ROTC students under 18. (While on parade, I guess. Statute doesn't clearly say.)
>Under-18 Joovies receiving instruction from parents, guardians, and adult instructors (with express permission),
may all possess handguns in Nebraska. (Saying possess, not own.)
[But don't take an under-14 year-old pistol shooting in Iowa.]

ILoveCats:
So I can officially "give" my kid a Ruger Mark III or Bearcat .22 at age 18 as a gift and be legal, but not before?
What's the direct quote in the law about juveniles "receiving instruction"? If he's riding around the pasture on a four wheeler looking for ground squirrels to shoot with my Bearcat in a holster on his hip, that's illegal because I'm not right there with him? But if he's standing beside me at a shooting range shooting it, that's ok?
