Montana imposes no specific age restrictions on the purchase or possession of firearms, though Montana’s child access prevention law generally prohibits a parent, guardian, or other person having charge or custody of a minor child under age 14 from allowing the child to carry or use in public any firearms.¹

 Federal age restrictions also apply.
