U.S Gun Laws Any law-abiding citizen in the United States is allowed to own or carry a gun. That right comes from the US Bill of Rights and the second amendment to the United States Constitution, the country's supreme law, which was written in It reads: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Anyone over the age of 18 is allowed to buy a rifle or shotgun from a licensed dealer in any state with over-21s able to buy handguns too. Certain people are banned from owning weapons including convicted criminals, people with mental health illnesses or non-US citizens. There are also special rules banning guns in and near schools.
