Age Requirements for Carrying or Moving Firearms

January 11, 2016

The minimum age requirement to carry and transport an unloaded firearm in a vehicle within New Hampshire without the need for any type of permit is 18 years old.

Note: Some states are very restrictive when it comes to possession and transportation of firearms that they only allow transporting to and from the gun shops, repair shops, shooting range, and the carrier’s own house or place of business. Other states do not have restrictions.
