2nd Amendment and Right to Bear Arms/CCW permit in Indiana

Advertisement


Question
I pled guilty to 2 P.I. Misdemeanors two years ago.
I work for a protection company and will be required to carry a weopon, so I applied for a permit.
The local P.D. Denied my request but in accordance with the law sent it to Indiana State police.
Will I get my license?

Answer
Please excuse the delay in responding to this, Nathan. I just learned that your question was pending.

That said, this is a Second Amendment topic, not a Criminal Justice one. Also, I don't have a crystal ball so I have no idea whether you will "get my license."

However, since you've already been denied by the local police agency, it doesn't look good for you.

I can answer questions about Handguns, Rifles, Ammunition, the Firearms Industry, the "gunzine game," practical accessories for self-defense (CCW) handguns; rumor control on firearms myths, errata on the "gunshop grapevine."

I am NOT an Attorney, and nothing I provide here should be relied upon as legal advice. Therefore, please do NOT make inquiries about Criminal Justice issues... this is the Second Amendment topic.

Nor do I do "Private Consultations." Want to made it "private," retain an attorney.
