State Gun Laws

This section addresses general Indiana state gun laws and the firearms seizure and retention law, which allows law enforcement to take away weapons from a “dangerous individual.” In addition to these state-specific laws, there are also federal gun laws that could apply. To fully understand all of the legal protections available, it is important that you also read the Federal Gun Laws pages.

Please consider getting in touch with a domestic violence advocate in your community for more information on gun laws in your area. To find help in your area, please go to the Indiana Places that Help page.
