How Does The Involvement Of A Minor In One Of These Cases Impact The Possible Penalties?

Trafficking guns and ammunition to a person under 18 years of age can also result in conviction under federal weapons trafficking laws. If convicted of weapons trafficking to juveniles under Title 18 U.S. Code § 922(x)(1), you face up to one year in prison. If a court finds you had reason to believe the juvenile would commit a violent crime with the gun or ammunition, you could possible face up to 10 years in federal prison.
