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

14 years old
16 years old
18 years old
21 years old

The correct answer is: 18 years old

In South Dakota, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without supervision is 18 years old. Option A (14 years old) and B (16 years old) are both too young, while option D (21 years old) is too old. This is because South Dakota law states that individuals must be at least 18 years old to possess a handgun, regardless of whether or not they have a permit. Any individual under the age of 18 may only possess or transport a handgun with the supervision of a parent or guardian.
