What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in West Virginia without supervision?

18 years old
21 years old
16 years old
25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

In West Virginia, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without supervision is 21 years old. This option is correct as it aligns with the legal age for owning a handgun in the state. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they are either too young or too old according to state regulations. Option A states 18 years old, which is the minimum age for purchasing a handgun but not for possessing or transporting it. Option C states 16 years old, which is the minimum age for hunting with a handgun in the state but not for general possession or transportation. Option D states 25 years old, which is not mentioned in the state laws for handgun possession or transportation.
