What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Mississippi without parental supervision?

  1. 18 years

  2. 21 years

  3. 25 years

  4. No minimum age with parental consent

The correct answer is: 18 years

In Mississippi, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without parental supervision is 18 years. This means that individuals who are 18 years or older can legally possess and transport a handgun in the state. It is important to note that this is in accordance with Mississippi state law, which sets the minimum age for such activities at 18 years. Therefore, option A is correct. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the minimum age required by Mississippi law for individuals to possess and transport a handgun without parental supervision. Mississippi law does not set the minimum age at 21 years, 25 years, or allow for possession and transportation of a handgun with parental consent.
