Adults that are still the wards of other people because of this handicap. Dementia, Alzheimers, brain damage, etc. I'm not an expert on this but I know you can remove a person't autonomy if they have issues like that. My mom had to do that for her parents a couple of years before her father died.

Executorship? Something like that.

Also probably people you know are not born or naturalized US citizens. I don't know when an immigrant can own a gun, but I imagine some of the levels of being in the US legally don't allow it.

I'm not saying they're dangerous, but if you're not sure if that guy on the H-1B visa can own a gun, you shouldn't sell him one.
