LTCH to take to the range?

[yenningcomity]

I apologize if this is posted somewhere, but I remember reading that Indiana had changed its laws about handgun transportation? This would allow moving an unloaded firearm to and from the range? I have been attempting to use the search feature to find someone mentioning the specific law, but cannot find it. I see instances of someone saying it is now legal, but no proof.

Essentially speaking I want to know if it is legal for me (a non ltch holder) to take my handguns to wilbur wright If not I need to get moving on my permit.

You should get moving on your permit anyway!

But yes, it is now legal to transport your firearm to and from the range. Just make sure it's in a locked box in the trunk and all that good stuff. I don't have the relevant ICs here but I'm sure someone will be along shortly who will.

i know. I felt like I could have used one today. Never comfortable buying a gun from someone, even less so inside a warehouse office

It's in the INGO FAQ.

The relevant Indiana Code is IC 35-47-2-1 (b)(3) and (b)(5)(A)

Yes, we've had an Indiana Code for many years.






...I personally don't think the FAQ exists.

thank you for pointing it out. Sadly the faq doesn't come up in the search but that may have to do with it being sorted by date.

If that is the case I may make a trip out to Wilbur Wright tomorrow. I have been itching to try my new toys (auto revolver and delta elite).

We still dont know what that "secured wrapper" is though.

I will just keep them in their boxes in the storage compartment near the hatch of my car. Honestly speaking I am more concerned about getting a ticket from a DNR officer than getting pulled over by a cop.

You should lock the box if you can, maybe also a cable lock through the action of the gun.
It would be stupid to get busted for that.
Then when you get your LTCH you wont have to worry about that.

The cable lock is a great idea. I was confused about the details of getting my gun to the range. I was just stupid about not expediting my ltch. It'll get here eventually.
