"Constitutional " carry question.

[G192127]

So Indiana recently passed and (now) enacted a law stating an Indiana resident can carry w/o a "pink card".
Can the piece be concealed? Must it be "open carried" Rifle? Pistol? Shotgun? Thanks in advance.

Your choice...concealed or open carry.

Long guns were never subject to getting a license/permit, hence "License to Carry Handgun". Nothing changed there.

Legally, no provision for open or concealed carry with or without a LTCH. When you needed a LTCH, you needed one to do either. Now that you don't need one, you don't need one to do either.

IC 35-47-2-3
Sec. 3. (a) A person who is at least eighteen (18) years of age and is not otherwise prohibited from carrying or possessing a handgun under state or federal law is not required to obtain or possess a license or permit from the state to carry a handgun in Indiana. A resident of this state who wishes to carry a firearm in another state under a reciprocity agreement entered into by this state and another state may obtain a license to carry a handgun in Indiana under this chapter by applying:

Handgun. Either open or concealed.

Open carrying a rifle was already legal.

Indiana State Police will continue to issue the LTCH to facilitate carrying in reciprocating carry states.

And I recommend getting one for this reason.

And training. Lots of training. Its the responsible thing to do.

Is there a defined list of items that make you prohibited? Or is this up to the whim of somebody?

As long as you are a “proper person” you are G2G. Same rules that apply to whether you are allowed a LTCH.

Interesting statement. Has it been confirmed that Dicken did not have a LTCH and was, in fact, taking advantage of the new CC law?

It depends on who you ask. LEO said no, Relford said yes. We will see in time.

 

[KellyinAvon]

The INGO crowd answered all the questions, but I can’t help but post in a Constitutional Carry thread.

It is confirmed he did and a copy posted in the GPM thread.

Can definitely be concealed! Indiana has always had a weird open/concealed lack of distinction on the verbiage of the old permits.

There is a "lack of distinction" on the permit, because there is no distinction in THE LAW.
The law that's been that way since Indiana was Indiana.

Yep and that's why our permitting was better than most. We weren't permitted to carry a CONCEALED handgun. We we simply permitted to carry a handgun. Many other states had and have concealed handgun permits with restrictions on open carry. Of course constitutional carry trumps all

Weird?

It's weird to let the choice be up to the person?

Hey I think it's great. But it was certainly atypical and unusual when you looked at what other states were doing. Like I mentioned above, we had a better permit system in that regard
