I was told different things by many different people and it seems that everyone is saying the same thing in this forum. "You can own a handgun purchased from a private dealer, no paper work but get a receipt to protect yourself. You can open carry but no concealed carry until 21 years old and I cannot purchase ammunition that I will have to have someone else do it for me." Also, Thanks for the advice on getting in some range practice and gun safety courses. Wouldn't wanna imitate the Christmas Story Movie "You'll shoot your eye out!" lol
