Age verification started with porn and social media. Now, governments are passing laws requiring operating systems to collect your age before you can use your computer at all.
Depends where you happen to live. Alcohol is sold without question in my country (France) provided you look old enough. If you don’t then, indeed, you will need to prove you’re of legal age.
Guns are not sold as easily as, say, in the USA. There is a lot of limitations on who can ask to own one (where and when) and also on the type of gun: don’t even think of buying some of those (semi-)automatic killing machine gun too many US people seem so obsessed owning… the only way to get your hands on one in France if you’re not a military is through illegal means, like being a member of some serious gang)
That being said, I doubt one will as often find guns or alcohol in a yard sale as they can find old typewriters lying around (the model I mentioned is ~72 years old)? At least here in France, maybe it’s different in the USA… it’s such an odd country ;)
