The laws HAVE changed a bit but I bought my first gun at 18. It was a .22 target shooting rifle. I bought my first handgun at 19. Small used .38 revolver, CCW laws be damned. This was while I was living in Elizabeth, working at newark airport and going to school at Rutgers.
So, while the permit process is time consuming, I wouldnt call it difficult. CCW permit is a completely different story.
