21 from FFL, 18 in private sale.
Edit.
A private sell is when you buy a gun from a person instead of a Federally licensed dealer.
If you were to buy a gun from a friend, it is a private sell.
If you buy it a guy on the street, it’s a private sell.
If you buy from a gun shop, it’s NOT a private sell.
federal law states that you must be 21 to buy a handgun from a dealer.
21
In Texas you have to be 21yrs to buy from a FFL and 18yrs old to buy through a private sale.
18 via private party sale
21 from a FFL holder as a FFL is prevented from selling a handgun to anybody under 21.
There is no registration, or license required to purchase a handgun in Texas.
The only License required is if you Conceal Carry on your person.
21 to purchase from an FFL, 18 to purchase from a private seller.
Texas - It is unlawful to knowingly sell, rent, give or offer to sell, rent or give any firearm to a person under 18, without the written consent of a parent or guardian.
Texas has no laws regarding possession of handguns, shotguns, or rifles by persons 18 years or older without felony convictions.

18 for long guns and 21 for hand guns everywhere.
you must be 21 years old to buy a pistol and pistol ammunition
At least 21 years old. there is no maximum.
18 to own one and 21 to buy one from a federally licensed dealer. The law basically encourages 18 year old buyers to have someone over 21 buy a new gun for them and sell it right to them. Stupid shit.
