  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

The correct answer is: 18 years old

In South Dakota, the minimum age to purchase a rifle or shotgun is 18 years old. This is the legal age set by state law. Option B, 21 years old, is incorrect because it is actually the minimum age to purchase a handgun in South Dakota. Option C is also incorrect as it is below the legal age set by state law. Option D is not a relevant age for purchasing a rifle or shotgun in South Dakota.
