However in each county the required age ups to 21. Why is this?
Most laws (Idaho) let the county sheriff approve the CCW permits. Therefore it would be the Sheriff's liability (politically) if teens were issued permits. No sheriff in Idaho has wanted to have that on their head. If the sheriff approved one teen, then why not YOUR teen? etc. Soon people would demand ALL teens have permits. I predict it will not happen in my lifetime (I'm 57). While I am comfortable with my teens handling weapons around me, I am not so sure I would be comfortable around YOUR teen with a weapon. Have you seen you teens using their iphones in the cars you give them? I have. Car driving and texting are very dangerous weapons in the hand of anyone. Where did they learn all those bad behaviors then? Not from driving instructors that's for sure. Some teens learn from what you tell them, but mostly they learn by what you show them. That's all I have t say about that.
Thank you for your reply "lakramer1211" this exactly what I am looking for. I know it is the Sheriff's decission and was just curious if I could find any Sheriff in the US to allow that!

Interesting. I live in CA and have been working on a proposal for the Sheriff. I really want to find a ccw application and or sheriffs office that has or will issue to an 18-20 year old since that is what our state law says. Any help in this specific area would be really appreciated.

This is exactly my problem that Penal Code you cited reads in the penal code as quoted, "29610. A minor shall not possess a pistol, revolver, or other
firearm capable of being concealed upon the person." However every Sheriff in CA thinks they can up the law to 21. Which I just cannot understand since there are legal ways for 18-20 year olds to obtain a handgun in CA. I cannot find what the liability is since I can buy and process an AR-15 in my home. I work for a local government agency and think I should be allowed to carry due side of the public I work with.
Bullcrap.... Idaho is a SHALL issue State... that means the sheriff (or issuing authority, didnt look at that part) SHALL issue if the applicant meets the requirements set out in the law or code set forth by the legislature.... There is no leeway in that, if you meet the requirements, you get the permit, period....
Please refrain from posting lies in the future....

Dear Alexandra45:
Please reread exception (l) below. It states that anyone under the age of 21 is excepted from the shall issue and is placed under the discretion of the county sheriff where the applicant resides. I generally do not shoot off my mouth with as much abandon as you do. I am sorry if your law school didn't teach you the value of checking your back stop before firing.
