Anyone know the details of the state of Indiana Carry Licenses??
I am an Illinois resident but will be working in Indiana for the summer (3 months) and was wondering if I could obtain a carry license while there? |
| Indiana does give non-resident licenses to people who have a place of business in Indiana, but I'm not sure what defines a "place of business". If you're lucky, you might be able to get a license that's still valid after you leave the state. Won't help you in IL but there are many states besides Indiana that recognize their non-resident license as valid. |

IC 35-47-2-3 Application for license to carry handgun; procedure Sec. 3. (a) A person desiring a license to carry a handgun shall apply: (1) to the chief of police or corresponding law enforcement officer of the municipality in which the applicant resides; (2) if that municipality has no such officer, or if the applicant does not reside in a municipality, to the sheriff of the county in which the applicant resides after the applicant has obtained an application form prescribed by the superintendent; or (3) if the applicant is a resident of another state and has a regular place of business or employment in Indiana, to the sheriff of the county in which the applicant has a regular place of business or employment. |

Can also obtain a non-resident permit from any state that will issue you one, as Indiana recognizes all permits for non-IN residents. If you'd happen to be traveling to PA, they have the easiest permit for an IL resident but you now have to apply in person. There is a whole forum for carry issues, appropriately titled "carry issues". |

Why not collect the whole set? Utah and Florida are the most popular, PA is the easiest [if you go there]. Get thee to handgunlaw.us

Sweet sounds like I CAN get it, and possibly pay a small fee for faster processing.
Anyone know if I could apply for it before moving out there for the summer? I saw an online form but asked for my address and wasn't sure which to put, also which box to check for "type of permit" as I did not see "carry" anywhere |

I work in IN, and am a KY resident.
The way it was explained to me when I applied for IN permit is you must work full time in IN (40 hrs/wk). However I was told I could not apply for a lifetime if I am not a IN resident. I was told this back in 08, dunno if its changed since. |

Make an appoint with L1 to get finger printed at the closest location to you in Indiana. After that point, your officially submitted. |

I was going through the application and it asks when I was an Indiana resident from when to when... do I leave this blank since I am not a resident? I didn't see any other part where it says resident or non-resident |
