I looked at this just now - the cite seems to conflate min age to purchase handguns with min age to posses. We will keep slowly updating OCOD till we are done, state by state, verifying by way of an actual state statute, then we will create a colorable map from this data.

If your state does nto yet show a min age to OC, please send John and I a private email with ciotation of authority and link to authority, THANKS!

I would suggest that all submissions be sent to a clearly-identified dedicated thread. This would (in theory) prevent repetitive submissions and also allow others to verify the information being presented.
