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

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 14 years old

The correct answer is: 18 years old

In South Dakota, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without parental supervision is 18 years old. This means that individuals must be at least 18 years old to legally own and carry a handgun in the state. The other options, 21 years old, 16 years old, and 14 years old, are incorrect as they do not match the legal age requirement in South Dakota. It is important to note that even if the individual is legally able to possess and transport a handgun, there may still be restrictions and regulations in place for the type or location of the gun. It is always important to follow all state and federal laws when handling firearms.
