I know you are allowed to legally buy a handgun in the state of Texas at 18. My brother in law now 20 bought his first handgun from another who was not an ffl at 18. He carries it in his glove box every day and it is legal.

I believe Jumping Frog is correct when saying at 17 they can legally possess but I can't remember the law. At 17 you are legally an adult in the state of Texas unless something has changed recently. Read into Texas law. It is there somewhere.

Either way if your children are 18 or older they may own and carry a handgun in their vehicle in the state of Texas. The topic comes up every once and a while try checking the search box also.
