What is the minimum age requirement to purchase a handgun in New Jersey?

  1. 18 years

  2. 19 years

  3. 21 years

  4. 25 years

The correct answer is: 21 years

In New Jersey, the minimum age requirement to purchase a handgun is 21 years old. This is because the state follows the federal law which sets the minimum age for handgun ownership at 21 years old, as opposed to the minimum age for rifles and shotguns which is 18 years old. While 18, 19, and 25 years of age are also common age requirements for purchasing firearms in different states, they are not applicable to purchasing a handgun in New Jersey. Therefore, these options are incorrect.
