Is there a discretionary law where the sheriff can issue a 19 yr. old a pistol permit?

Question

pistol permits for under 21?

Answer 1

Yes or no.  Depends on where you live, I guess.

Answer 2

not to my knowledge. I wish it were 18 I would much rather own and operate a weapon legally than illegally.but they don't give you the option if you are under 21

Answer 3

It depends on what you mean by pistol permit as well as the word discretionary applying to the issuance of a handgun permit.  You are not eligible to buy a handgun until you are 21.  However, you are legal to own a handgun under 21.  If your parent or grandparent handed one down to you through a DOJ intra-familial transfer as it would be in your name within a month.  You still cannot purchase handgun ammo.  In some circumstances in some states, a concealed weapon permit can be issued to a person under 21 but do not count on it, at least not in California.  Most states are 21 and older.  Florida is a shall issue state and work in a variety of states.  Shall issue means you do not need a reason for a concealed weapon permit, they SHALL ISSUE it to you.  Hope this helped.
