I'm pretty sure it was, if the gun is handgun is handed down to you from a parent/grand parent it is legally yours, but I don't know the process to receive it. (21 TO BUY THE HANDGUN and AMMO, 18 to OWN IT) I could be wrong, but I don't think I am. I also remember reading a 18yr can take a HANDGUN thats been given to them (by a parent / or a present), and drive alone to a firing range and practice.

Can anyone confirm or deny this and if I'm correct tell me about the process of transfer.
