Guns & Firearms:
Laws are set to protect kids and adults when dangerous instruments are involved. This applies to driving a car as well as to possession of guns. In Arizona, the law states that kids under the age of 18 are not allowed to carry guns. (ARS 13-3111). This law also provides some exceptions where kids are allowed to have and use a gun under certain restricted conditions. For example, a kid can carry a gun if he or she is with a parent, grandparent, qualified hunter, safety instructor, or qualified firearms safety instructor as long as there is permission from a parent or guardian. When involved in lawful hunting or shooting events or marksmanship practice, kids between the ages of 14 and 18 are allowed to be in possession of a firearm.(ARS 13-3111). Because there are many exceptions and details in this statute, you may want to read the law or consult a gun expert or lawyer before actually possessing a firearm.
Deadly Weapons:
Arizona Law (ARS 13-3101) says that a Deadly weapon is anything that is designed for lethal use, including a firearm.
It is against Arizona law to carry a firearm or any deadly weapon on a school campus. (ARS 13-3102)

In the State of Arizona you can purchase a shotgun at the age of 16, and a handgun at the age of 18. just go to a local gun vendor and ask for the legal age, that's what i did.

In the state of Arizona it is required that you need to be 21 years old to purchase a handgun, and 18 years old to purchase a rifle or shotgun.I think it`s important to understand that owning firearms is a right that is protected under the bill of rights, it is also important to carry and use them with care.On another note the United Kingdom banned ALL firearms and about one year later the crime rate went up 375%...makes you wonder why?

You have to be 21 to buy a hand gun and 18 to buy a rifle. As far as I know of you have to be 18 to buy mace/pepper-spray. HOWEVER, you can't carry pepper-spray with you in a bag or in your pocket, its considered a concealed weapon (Thats a fed. permit required.). Pepper-Spray is also not something you can carry at school. For knives, I think a minor can buy a pocket knife with a blade length of under 2 inches.... If a place is willing to sell some one a "Full" sized blade or sword that is not legale.
