Federal Court Rules That Ban on Handgun Sales for Under 21-Year-Olds Is Unconstitutional
A federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday that a federal law banning handgun sales to young adults is unconstitutional.
In a 2–1 vote, the three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that a law Congress passed in 1968 that sets a minimum age of 21 for purchasing handguns violates the Second Amendment.
“Looking through this historical lens to the text and structure of the Constitution reveals that 18- to 20-year-olds have Second Amendment rights. Virtually every other constitutional right applies whatever the age. And the Second Amendment is no different,” Judge Julius N. Richardson, appointee of President Donald Trump, wrote in the ruling.
