LTCH...which handgun can I carry?

[figley]

Doug,

By all means, ASK! The last thing anyone here wants to hear is that you have run afoul of the law due to ignorance. As has been mentioned, confusing IC with laws of other states is common when one is new to CCW.

For many here, that info is old hat, but we all have to start somewhere. A thicker skin wouldn't hurt , but I've found that nobody who wants to be here for long will seriously call you out for asking a question of that importance.

btw- in case no one has told you yet, the purple text is sarcasm

welcome to

Semi auto's are only allowed on Days that end in a "Y"

Clarification....semi autos are only allowed during the months that end with a "Y". Revolvers are only allowed during months that end with an "R". All other months you're only allowed to carry full auto's (of your choice) minimum 30 rd mags (must be concealed) ........

In all honesty, like someone else stated in some states u may have to list what you carry (no idea if this is true), how sucky does that sound. I am glad Indiana is one of the lenient states when it comes to gun and carry laws.

As I stated earlier, I don't have the LTCH yet, so I'm trying to prepare myself. That way when it does come I don't have all of these things to worry about. I think it goes back to the old "Get your ducks in a row" cliche. Or "better safe than sorry". I'd hate to think that I carry the .380 one day and then I step out side the next and Officer Friendly stops and asks to see what I'm Licensed to carry...so I ask.

Thanks again to everyone who has weighed in. If others want to add to the answers or if you have other info about other carry issues I MUST know, then please, send it along.

I will not run out of Bacon, "If my parents boat catches fire, then I'm grabbing the Bacon...I'll walk out real slow so it gets nice and crispy". Almost quoted from a commercial.

Thanks for the laugh!

"Purple" text is supposed to indicate sarcasm on INGO. I'm not sure why.

I think Paco Bejedo came up with the "sarcasm in purple" suggestion so as not to offend those whose sarcasm meter was malfunctioning.

Sorry, guess I should have put that in purple.

I highly recommend the book Indiana Handgun Law by Bryan Ciyou.

It is a great introduction to all the laws with simplified explanations for us non-lawyers. I know I learned a lot and feel much more comfortable with both my basic understanding of the rules and my ability to look up and interpret specific answers.

Once again, thanks to everyone who cleared this up for me. It sure would have sucked...a lot if a person would have to report to their local PD each time they decided they wanted to carry something different.

Also, for those of you who have responded, don't forget to grab your bacon on the way out.

Doug

Carry whatever handgun you want, as for the full auto glock, you might want to check on that.

I was wondering how OP had almost 4000 posts and didn't know the answer to the question. I need to face palm myself.

After I read it, I guess I should feel dumb...but if you don't ask you won't know. Thanks, I don't know where or why I come up with the question. I guess it had something to do with registering your firearm. But, since you don't have to do that then there would be no reason to report/change the sidearm you're carrying.

No offense, brother Evansvillian, but with that many posts I'm a little surprised you would ask that question.
