Yesterday my girlfriend and I went to the Nations Gun Show in Chantilly Virginia looking to buy an affordable handgun. I found an army fellow there walking around with a SIG p6 9mm he was trying to sell so I offered $350 for it. He took the offer and I got the pistol, 2 mags, and a holster. Shortly after the transaction, a man who witnessed the sale approached me and asked my age (I am 18 but look a bit younger). I told him i'm 18 and he told me that I must be 21 to buy a handgun, and I told him how that only applies to buying from an FFL licensed dealer and I just got mine by a private sale. He kept insisting that you have to be 21 to even have a handgun at all and proceeded to ask a group of old guys behind one of the stands and they all agreed with him and told me that I better find that guy I bought it from and return the gun before I go to jail. I told them that I know it was legal because I looked up the law and they all just laughed at me and claimed that I have no idea what i'm talking about, being a bunch of arrogant jerks to me. So me and my girlfriend just walk away from them and then she looks back to see them talking to state troopers and pointing at us. So the police come up to us and I told them exactly what happened, and thankfully the police were nice and respectful to us and said they wern't sure either so they made us wait there with them for half an hour while they were looking up the law until one of them returned saying we are good to go. So being rather relieved I got to walk out and take my girlfriend to the shooting range with the new little 9mm
