What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in South Dakota without supervision?

  1. 14 years of age

  2. 16 years of age

  3. 18 years of age

  4. 21 years of age

The correct answer is: 18 years of age

In South Dakota, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without supervision is 18 years of age. This means that individuals must be at least 18 years old to legally have a handgun in their possession and transport it without adult supervision. It is important to note that underage individuals should always be supervised by a responsible adult when handling firearms to ensure safety and compliance with the law. Option A (14 years of age), Option B (16 years of age), and Option D (21 years of age) are not the correct answers because they do not align with the legal age requirement in South Dakota for possessing and transporting a handgun without supervision, which is 18 years of age.
