" They’re not ignoring state law. They’re simply deciding who they’ll do business with and on what terms. That’s perfectly legal, if a bit silly in this context."

They can't do that. No more than a business that sells alcohol could say you have to be 25 or whatever BS they want to make up. Federal law is 18 to buy a long gun. As soon as these companies refuse to sell to a 20 year old they are committing age discrimination. They are violating the civil rights of the purchaser.

Can an 18 year-old possess a rifle if he can’t buy one?
