One consumer is challenging the new age restrictions that some retailers have put in place for buying guns. Tyler Watson, 20, has filed lawsuits against Walmart and Dick’s Sporting Goods for age discrimination after the two retailers refused to sell him a rifle. Oregon state law allows residents who are at least 18 years old to buy shotguns and rifles. The lawsuit is believed to be the first filed over the retailers’ new gun policies.
