  1. 16 years

  2. 18 years

  3. 21 years

The correct answer is: 18 years

In Alabama, an individual must be at least 18 years old to legally own a shotgun or rifle. This age requirement is in line with federal law, which sets the minimum age for purchasing a firearm from a licensed dealer at 18 years old for long guns like shotguns and rifles. It's important for individuals to be aware of and adhere to these age restrictions when considering firearm ownership.
