Here is the situation:
You are stoped by the police when carrying your firearm (OC or CC) and they ask for your LTCH.
Can they take the gun away from you?
Can they run the serial number to see if it was stolen or just right it down?
What if I hide the serial number with some tape and do not give them consent for any search?
Would they need a search warrant to remove that tape and get to that information?
I know in Indiana the guns are not registered so the serial number wouldnt give much information but im asking to know if that would be legal to hide.
