Can I carry a firearm in Pennsylvania if I am under 21 years of age?

I am a private security guard and I am only 20 years old. I know I cannot legally get my concealed weapons license yet, but I want to know, since i’m over 18 can I carry a gun for my job? I know there are certain licenses you need to obtain, but if I do that, will I be able to carry a firearm, it’s not concealed or anything if it’s holstered. I know you can buy and carry a firearm openly if you’re over 18, but I don’t know about private security. Thanks.
***I noticed many of you said you cannot own one in the United States if you are under 21. That is false. You can buy a firearm privately at age 18 and carry a gun at age 18, however you cannot buy one from a licenses seller until 21. That’s not what i’m asking anyway.

What I’m asking is, can I carry it to work if I have my licenses, even though i’m not 21.

What is necessary for the legal sale of firearms in USA?

I am wanting to buy and sell firearms on a small scale LEGALLY. Just as an entrepreneurial buy/sell job on the side to help my income as it is an area which I am passionate about.

How would go about doing this without landing myself in jail, or attracting unsavory buyers? Can I do it online and just ship etc.??

Need an armed guards license to carry a pistol?

I know this isn’t about hunting, but I figured many of the individuals who post here may be familiar with firearms laws.

Does an individual need an armed guards license to carry his personal pistol with him while working for a security company? Or does he just need a concealed pistol license? Does he need one or the other, or both? Or does it depend on the company?

Note: I live in the state of Washington, and this question pertains to this state.
Why do I want to carry a gun?

Because I am the only individual working the site in a high crime area. I would feel much safer if I were armed VS being unarmed. Especially when confronting a group of 5-6 people.

I think anyone in their right mind would agree with me.
Mark, you are incorrect.

There is no client at my job. My job is on site at my job. It is it’s own security company. It doesn’t work for anybody else.

Filling out pistol license app – have some questions?

I’m filling out my pistol license application and I have some questions.

Question 38 reads: Have you ever been terminated/discharged from any employment or the armed forces for cause?

-I have definitely been discharged from a previous job but for reasons such as excessive lateness. Would I answer NO to this question?

Also, my fiance and I are recovering drug addicts. It specifically asks on the form if there has ever been a history of drug use. 4 years ago, we both changed our lives and no longer drink or use drugs. Is this going to negatively impact the application??

When my fiance quit using drugs, he checked himself into a mental hospital willingly for 2 days. This is also a question on the application. How will this affect the application?
I would never lie on the application! Was just wondering if these things would affect the decision.
I live in NY by the way!
Just to make myself clear about something. I got a rude e-mail from someone suggesting that I was going to be ‘buying a gun for my mentally ill fiance’. This is not the case, we are filling out our own separate applications.
