Clear answer on gun laws

My understanding is that even a rifle with a pistol grip (e.g. AR15) can only be purchased by a 21 year old. Makes sense? No.

...

So based on that, an 18 year old could buy a Ruger Mini in .223 with a detachable mag. But he could not buy an AR in .223 with a detachable mag.

Bulls*** I can't. Got an AR sitting in my guncabinet to attest to that fact. On the Yellow form, there are two options. Long gun, handgun. Long gun you must be 18 to purchase from an FFL, handgun 21. Operative words in there being from an FFL.

You can buy a handgun at 18 from a private party, unless your state prohibits it. Anyone tells you otherwise, tell them to come have a talk with my sherrifs department.

You can buy/posess handgun ammo at 18, you just cannot buy from an FFL. Anyone else, you can buy it from, or get it from.

You can buy a long gun and ammo from anyone, barring any state laws, at 18. Dont matter if it is long, short, black, wood, girly, ugly, scoped, pistol gripped, stripped or old. A long gun is a long gun, there is no federal distinction between an AR and a Mini 14.

The only thing that under-21 crowd has no legal options to own is NFA goodies.

I mean, I can understand them when they get brainwashed while in college

Here we go again with the college=brainwashed crap :barf:
 
College is a symptom, not a disease. People coming out of college aren't liberal because they've been brainwashed; liberals overwhelmingly self-select themselves to go to college. Similarly, ultra-liberals often self-select themselves to continue with grad school, and the most liberal of those self-select themselves to become part of the ivory tower, some because they're so liberal that they simply cannot function in the real world.

There's nothing preventing conservatives or libertarians from selecting themselves for college, grad school, or the ivory tower; although there's some social pressure and selection criteria that exclude some conservatives, there's nothing in any of those three that qualifies as "brainwashing."

If there were really brainwashing in college, graduates would be closer to 100%... something like 90%+ liberal would be suspicious. Liberalism in college graduates is more prevalent than in the general population, but it's not that high.
