What is the minimum age to purchase a rifle or shotgun in Wyoming?

  1. 18

  2. 21

  3. 16

  4. There is no minimum age

The correct answer is: 18

In Wyoming, the minimum age to purchase a rifle or shotgun is 18 years old. This age restriction is in line with federal law, which prohibits the sale of firearms to individuals under the age of 18. It is important for individuals to be of a certain age before being allowed to purchase firearms to ensure responsible ownership and use of firearms. Option B is incorrect as 21 is not the minimum age required to purchase a rifle or shotgun in Wyoming. Option C is also incorrect as 16 is below the legal age limit for purchasing these types of firearms. Option D is incorrect as there is indeed a minimum age requirement in Wyoming for the purchase of rifles or shotguns.
