A bill that would relax Indiana’s concealed carry guns laws will go to a summer study committee.
The Indiana House and Senate voted Friday to study whether a person who has a civil protection order, which stems from domestic violence, should be allowed to temporarily obtain a gun without a permit.
The same committee would also study the issue of constitutional carry, which calls for abolishing requirements that a person carrying a concealed gun have a permit.
The committee will run studies on what might happen if carrying a gun becomes license-free for a period of time. Also, the committee is instructed to identify people that should be restricted from obtaining a gun and compile data on handgun usage in Indiana. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
