The video prompted a lively debate online about whether it was fair or not.
To be fair, the guy selling the gun was a private seller. I'm sure the kid could've got smokes from a private seller.

Wait so the age restriction for a gun goes away when it‘s sold by a private seller? Or did this dude just not care and illegally sold it too

Totally legal. Gun show loophole. No ID checks, background checks.

Private sellers (who are at gun shows) are not required to do back ground checks, record the sale or even ask for ID in Indiana.

13 year olds cannot legally buy guns. The seller broke the law. He should have said no.

That is correct, but there was no oversight to ensure the sellers were following the law.
