I just turned 18 and got a super blackhawk hunter from my parents and was wondering if I am able to take a handgun to a gun range without a parent? I also would like to know if I can buy handgun ammo?
Thanks!

On buying the ammo....No you cant buy it untill you are 21.
Range rules will vary from place to place.
I know you have to be 21 to purchase (and "purchase" is the key word here) a handgun but possesion is probably OK. I would get a clarification from a LEO before you try traveling with a handgun though.
