They can’t have it both ways; if an 18yr old is prevented from legally purchasing a rifle, then no voting 16yr olds and absolutely no more trans anything til the age of 18 or 21.
Just looked. Active duty for all branches is 17 it looks like. Maybe you could join earlier if you were turning 17 before you finished training? Plus there are always the stories of kids joining in wartime and lying about their age. Those older generations were different weren’t they?
Oh I wasn’t saying you were wrong- just that I was wrong, it’s younger than I thought! Who knows what it has been over the years….. probably has fluctuated. One thing is for sure: An 18 (or 16) year old even 15 years ago was probably more mature than your average 18 year old today.

Should be able to buy any firearm one month before your parents decide to cut your dick off.
Shorted out my lefty friend’s brain last night when I said, “An 18 year old is old enough to use a gun to defend our nation.”
I knew a guy in the army who was 16 when he joined. Not sure of specifics, but I do remember that tidbit

I reserve the right to be wrong, it was over 15 years ago and I only worked with him a few weeks.

California's law barring 18 through 20 year olds was just thrown out by a judge for being unconstitutional.
People in every other state should sue to remove the same laws in other states.
NO, it's different! Children can decide their gender!!!
