Walk It Through: The Teenager and the Pistol

A minor with a handgun, the uses the law allows, written permission, and a store that sold it.

A high school junior wants to take a handgun to the range with his uncle.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

A teenager with a family willing to supervise. A school campus, a crime of violence and juvenile court procedure are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
