Is it legal to gift an 18-20 year old a firearm in Florida? Otherwise I guess they must just wander around and hope they get lucky and find one growing in the wild.

Does it matter if its regular water or should I look for a bridge over troubled water?

If we were to apply this logic to all citizens, we could say a ban on sales would leave us all free to obtain firearms by means other than purchasing. Presumably, that would drive demand for make-it-yourself machine centers so people could produce their own.

No, you purchase a firearm via a face to face intrastate transaction with a fellow Florida resident.

In FL I can give my 18 year old son a firearm I legally own, that is legal.

Ideally it would be on an individual basis. I have known 15 year olds I had rather see with a gun than some 25 year olds. Or 45 year olds.
Could we read an EEG to determine maturity?
