Gov. Greg Abbott says a Texas law raising the age to buy assault-style weapons would be unconstitutional. “There have been three court rulings since May that have made it clear that it is unconstitutional to ban someone between the ages of 18 and 21 from being able to buy (AR-15s),” said Abbott.
During a campaign stop in North Texas, Governor Greg Abbott said recent calls for the State of Texas to raise the minimum age to 21 to buy an AR style rifle will be unsuccessful.
