As a minor you are allowed to have and legally discharge firearms if you have your parent or guardian’s permission.
If someone sells or gives you a firearm or ammunition without your parent’s permission when you are a minor, they are guilty of a class 6 felony. This includes toy pistols by which dangerous an explosive substances may be discharged (ARS 13-3109).
Any time a gun is used in connection with an offense (such as an assault, or a gun is shoplifted) the penalty for those illegal actions is increased.
what do they consideer a minor? im going crazy hear, is it someone than 18 or 21.

I grew up in AZ, and my dad frequented shooting ranges, as of 1999 (when I left AZ) you had to be 21 to legally own a handgun, 18 for rifles/shotguns
