Prove that it isn't. The problem is you're applying the concept only to guns when it applies to everything you do. The rights you are born with, you can't fully exercise until you are of age, because your parents with the help of society, suppress your freedom of choice.

That doesn't mean you lost them, because when you reach the age, you can exercise them..... unless you escape before then. Then It's up to you what rights you want to relinquish and for what in return.

If you have a ball, but your parents won't let you play with it until you're 18, it's still your ball. If your parents destroy it, you've lost it, but thats only because it's a physical item. That's also exactly why rights can't be taken away, they can only be given away.
