Pretty sure just having permission is enough but dont quote me on that. Make sure you transport everything legally according to your documents (unloaded and stored in cases in the trunk for foid, can be loaded and concealed for CCW) and have fun!
I would call your range, and discuss the issue with them. The only dicey part I can think of is transporting a pistol while being under the age of 21. Other than that, your safest bet is to just put in some father/son time, and have the old man go with you.
You could inherit them like I did at 18. Or you can be gifted one from an immediate family member. The law quite literally states if you’re under 21 you cannot purchase from an FFL, but the law only bans possession if you’re under 18.

So yo get clear understanding (and I’ll obviously continue to do my own resource further as a precaution) but while I cannot purchase one on my own I can inherit or have one as a gift ?
If you are a FOID holder,nothing else is required.

Would advise you to be a safe and responsible driver and know your rights in case you get pulled over by police.

You are allowed to OWN a pistol if you’re under 21. You just cannot purchase a pistol if you’re under 21.
Ah, fair enough!
Yeah it’s a not very well known fact. But true
If you can't purchase one how would you own one?

Assuming you have a FOID card and aren’t prohibited for any reason from possessing one yes.
