...Related topic, anyone know if the "dealer can't sell to under 21" would also apply to an inbound FFL transfer? I'm guessing yes, but if someone knows for sure......

You are allowed to have them. You are allowed to buy them. But a firearms dealer is not allowed to sell (transfer) one to you. This means you have to purchase it from a private party who is not a licensed firearms dealer. Don't look for the law to make any sense...

What steps would I have to take to carry a real pistol at 18

Step 1: Buy a pistol from a private party and take it to police station to register it.
Step 2: Get a good holster and possibly a spare mag holster too for extra SHTF situations.
Step 3: Pack all your mags full with self defense (aka Hollow Points) rounds.
Step 4: Rack the slide and head out the front door (WITHOUT your blue card! leave that at home. despite popular belief, its not required to be on you.)
Step 5: Enjoy being a lawfully armed, right exercising, American citizen....

oh yea...maybe print out the open carry pamphlet and carry it with you (doesnt serve as a ccw so dont hide your gun) it just explains what you can and cant do. alot of cops dont even know the laws so be prepared to whip that bad boy out....the pamphlet i mean. and teach them a thing or two.
