What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Indiana without supervision?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

The minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Indiana without supervision is 21 years old. This legal requirement is in place to ensure that individuals handling handguns have reached a certain level of maturity and responsibility, which is deemed necessary for the safe management of such firearms. The law reflects a broader policy aimed at promoting safety and responsibility in firearm ownership and use. While there are provisions that allow younger individuals to possess a handgun under certain circumstances, such as under supervision or for specific activities, the general rule establishes 21 as the age for unsupervised possession and transportation.
