New Jersey is fairly anti-gun as well. I had to wait till I was 21, then apply for a firearm purchaser's ID card, which took 3 months and involved getting fingerprinted and paying for an FBI background check on myself. Only then could I buy anything. Pistols require special pistol permits in addition to this, too.
I haven't shot in a couple years now, though.
