For the sake of legality, I am not saying that I am going to do this, I am just curious

How much trouble could I get in at 19 years of age owning a hand gun and keeping it in the lockable glove box of my car? I would like to know for Washington and California state, mostly curious about Washington State.

Probably a lot...

OK- here is your most valuable internet lesson on seeking REALLY important information:

Some states permit ownership/ possession of a handgun by person between 18-21. Some do not. Some states consider a handgun in a glovebox to be a concealed weapon. Some do not. Some states consider an unlawful concealed weapon a FELONY. Some do not (misdemeanor) FELONIES result in your being banned from owning a gun the rest of your life.

Now, I could tell you the laws in CA and Washington, but I am not. You see, you have no idea who the hell I am- and as far as you can tell for SURE- I am 13 years old, Mom is still asleep, and does not know I am posting on the forum using a really cool user name- and most I know about guns is what I learned playing HALO III.

Seriously, this is too important to take advice from total strangers, unless the advice is a link to the state dept of justice website, where you can read FOR YOURSELF what the state law requires. Please. Start by running a Google search for the state laws in the states you seek. When you run into a question on meaning of anything there, please come back by, post, and myself or other folks here will try to give you a hand.

Unless mom grounds me and takes away my internet privileges again.

The FTF flunked our Bar Exam.

Only a fool would take legal advice from us.

Call a lawyer.

Taking legal advice from a public forum is only exceeded in stupidity by the people that offer that advice!

Check with your State Authorities and DO IT LEGALLY.

Just because you read something on the net, doesn't make it true.

NEVER leave a handgun in a car. Cars get stolen/broken into all the time.

THIS!! And the fact that we do not know who the hell YOU are!!

[hogger129]

Like IGETEVEN said, a lawyer is always a credible source of legal information.

More often than not, the local police know what the laws are too.

[CHLChris]

I know that any felony could ruin a LONG life. They don't go away like a bankruptcy. Living life by playing the odds is a sure way to get screwed. LEO's can sniff deception or nervousness.

I'm surprised you even asked about California. I heard they just outlawed possessing photographs of high-capacity magazines larger than 10 rounds. You gotta have regulations or those nutjob right-wing terrorist types will go on a killing rampage after they get done going to work to pay their taxes and support their family.
