Massachusetts court hears challenge to ban on under-21s owning guns, citing Second Amendment rights.
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court is hearing arguments in a case challenging the state’s ban on firearm possession for those under 21, with a 20-year-old defendant claiming the law violates his Second Amendment rights.
His legal team argues that 18- to 20-year-olds are legally recognized as adults in other areas, making the age restriction arbitrary.
Gun rights advocates and public defenders support the challenge, while the state defends the law as a reasonable public safety measure backed by data on youth gun violence.
The outcome could influence similar cases nationwide, especially as the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to address age-based gun restrictions.
