Is a license required to carry a firearm in a vehicle in Indiana?

Yes, always
No, if unloaded and locked away
Yes, but only for handguns
No, if visible and unloaded

The correct answer is: Yes, always

In Indiana, a license is not always required to carry a firearm in a vehicle. Specifically, individuals can carry an unloaded firearm in a vehicle without needing a license, as long as it is secured and not readily accessible. The correct understanding is that if the firearm is unloaded and locked away, a license is not necessary. This applies particularly to long guns (like rifles and shotguns). However, the regulations do differ for handguns, where a license is indeed required for carry, even in a vehicle. Thus, the answer indicating that a license is always required does not align with the specific provisions allowing for unloaded and secured firearms. It’s essential to know these nuances to ensure compliance with Indiana laws regarding firearm transport.
