U.S. Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) said Wednesday that he was working on a bipartisan bill that would raise the minimum age to buy a rifle, including the AR-15.

In a tweet, the senator said “a kid too young to buy a handgun should be too young to buy an AR-15.”

In most states, those 18 and older can purchase a rifle, while they have to be 21 to purchase handguns.

Flake’s bill, which he was working on with Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), would raise the minimum age to buy a rifle to 21.
