(ONN) – A new Ohio Senate bill could legally put guns in the hands of more people with a Second Amendment showdown looming at the federal level.

Ohio Senate Bill 303 was introduced by Republican Senator Terry Johnson.

The bill would make it legal for eighteen to twenty-year-olds to buy handguns from licensed dealers.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that the problem is a 1968 federal law banning under 21 sales.

Nationally, thirteen states are challenging that law at the federal level as a violation of youth Second Amendment rights.

Ohio could join that fight that could end up at the Supreme Court.
