You are correct that high school students in the US are to young to carry concealed, but are incorrect for the age across the US. South Dakota issues concealed weapons permits to 18 and up. Federal law restricts the sale of handguns and handgun ammunition to age 21 and older. Therefore, South Dakota allows someone to carry a weapon 3 years before they can purchase ammunition for it. In Oregon, I legally had a handgun with me at the age of 18, but could not conceal it.
