What is the minimum age to purchase a handgun in Rhode Island?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 25 years old

  4. 30 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

In Rhode Island, the minimum age to purchase a handgun is 21 years old. Option A is incorrect because 18 years old is the minimum age to purchase a long gun, not a handgun. Option C and D are also incorrect as they are above the legal age requirement in Rhode Island.
