William Kirk of Washington Gun Law explains the age restrictions for firearm possession in Washington State, specifically focusing on handguns and semi-automatic rifles. He contrasts the general rule of 18+ with Washington's law requiring individuals to be 21. The video also references the recent Hirschfield v. ATF ruling by the 4th Circuit, which declared a federal law prohibiting 18-20 year olds from possessing handguns unconstitutional.
