What is the minimum age to purchase a handgun from a federally licensed dealer in Vermont?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

Federal law requires an individual to be at least 21 years old to purchase a handgun from a federally licensed dealer in Vermont. This is because the Gun Control Act of 1968 set the minimum age for handgun purchases at 21 years old. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not meet the minimum age requirement set by federal law. It is important to note that some states may have their own age restrictions for purchasing firearms, but federal law supersedes state law in this case.
