There was Morton Grove, IL, a Chicago suburb which outlawed handguns.  Kennesaw, GA passed an ordinance requiring gun ownership.  Gun control ONLY works on the law abiding anyway!

Phoenix,\n\nDepending on where you live, the State may be able to issue a concealed carry permit.  This usually requires an eight-hour course on handgun safety, and an application for the permit with a fee.  Needless to say, if you've ever been convicted of a violent (or, in some States, ANY) crime, you should not even bother.

Why would anyone want to "but" a gun. Wouldn't that hurt.\nWhy don't you try reading the 2nd amendment?\n\nIt's the "right to bear arms". States have the right to set age limits.

Cambodia, Phomn Phen. You can pick one up for $50's US... Although I don't know why you'd want one. & you'd probably be shot for the rest of your belonging & cash & the gun back!

I'm pretty sure that it's a federal thing, not state law.  You need to be 18.  21 if you want a handgun.  Background checks apply.  Be safe with it.

IN MOST STATES YOU MUST HAVE A PERMIT TO PURCHASE THE POWDER. CHECK THE  LOCAL GUN SHOP.

Yes, in North Carolina, there is a three day waiting period to purchase a hand gun. This is after you have taken the time from work to take a state mandated fire arms safety course, go to your county's sheriff's office and fill out the necessary paperwork for a criminal background check and FBI search and fill out an application for hand gun purchase. In the mean time, you could have bought as many of what ever you want off a street corner in one day and be done with it. The criminals have it made in this country...why do they make honest people go through so much to get a hand gun? I know other states are even harder to deal with....New York being one of the toughest! They're trying to make honest people not want to even have guns.\n\nWhy isn't there a national standard on the gun law? Should individual states be able to create their own laws concerning something straight out of the Constitution?

Any class III firearms dealer should be able to order one - however, they are legal for sale only to other class III dealers, or to military/law enforcement personnel.  Since they are manufactured after the 1986 automatic weapons ban, it is not possible to legally own one as a private citizen.  Only automatic weapons registered as "Transferable" may be purchased and owned legally by the general public.  There is a $200 transfer fee, a criminal background check, and a waiting period of however long it takes the BATF to process the paperwork.\n\nTo become a class III dealer, you need to contact the BATF (Bureau of alcohol, tobacco, and firearms).  I think the fee for becoming a dealer is $1500.00, and you have to pass one heck of a background check.  This allows you to buy and sell class III firearms (each weapon will require the $200 transfer).  There are three classes - transferable, pre-86 samples, and post-86 samples.\n\nAs a dealer, you can trade in all three types.  If you let your dealer status lapse, you may keep all transferable and pre-86 samples then in your posession.  Post-86 samples (such as the 18C) will need to be sold to another class III dealer or be destroyed.  The BATF frowns upon people becoming dealers only to enhance their collection (Samples are much less expensive than transferable weapons), so be prepared for some scrutiny if you never actually sell a weapon.\n\nThere is no license that will grant carry permission to a full automatic.  You may own and transport weapons provided the transfer fee has been paid, (you will be issued a tax stamp as proof the weapon is legally registered) but you cannot carry them on your person as a concealed weapon.\n\nThere are other full auto pistols that are transferable.  The cheapest I've seen are Ingram MAC-10 and similar weapons for around $4000-$6000.  The Beretta 93R is another full auto pistol, but I haven't been able to find out if any were made pre-86.

Juveniles under the age of 21 are forbidden from carrying a handgun.  Florida also will not recognize licenses from other states for individuals under the age of 21.\n\nEDIT: I realized that the CCW reciprocal recognition program applies only to actual CCW permits.  You're asking more broadly about carrying a weapon in a car, but I don't think the rules change - though, interestingly, there was a significant Supreme Court dispute years ago about whether the federal word "carry" included possession of a weapon in a car or only on a person.  Regardless, I wouldn't recommend it, unless you can find an extremely specific legal verdict that directly allows juveniles to transport weapons.

It is sad how many people have come to believe that fully-automatic firearms are illegal. Really all but 7 states allow civilians to own fully-automatic weapons. You have to apply for a class 3 weapon permit, which is really just a $200(?) tax you pay to be allowed to purchase one. You then have to get that form signed by your local sheriff and get his permission to buy class 3 weapon. There are extensive background checks and costs to getting a fully-automatic weapon, but if you can afford it and you have a clean record, it is surely not impossible to legally get one. This link shows what states do and do not allow automatic firearms and other types of restrited guns.

No.  There is a form you have to fill out (we call it the yellow sheet).  One of the questions it asks is whether or not you are a U.S. cititzen.  If you answer "no", that's going to be your answer when you want to purchase a gun.

Now... if you're asking whether you, yourself can buy a gun at United sSate of american, I say probably not. You don't write like you're from America and you must be a citizen in order to purchase a gun..at least legally.

Yes you do have to be older then 18 to buy a knife, but it does depend on what state you live in.
