1. 18 years

2. 21 years

3. 16 years

4. 25 years

The correct answer is: 21 years

In Nebraska, you must be 21 years of age in order to possess a handgun. Option A is incorrect because even though 18 years is the legal age to purchase a handgun, it is not the minimum age requirement for possession. Option C is incorrect because 16 years is too young to possess a handgun in Nebraska. Option D is incorrect because 25 years is older than the actual minimum age requirement in Nebraska. The correct minimum age requirement for possessing a handgun in Nebraska is 21 years.
