Do you need a LTCH to OWN a handgun?
Hey everyone,
Sorry for such a broad question, but I was window shopping the for-sale forums earlier and noticed that on pretty much every pistol listing the owner required the buyer to present a LTCH and IN drivers license.
Am I the only one here who doesn't have a carry permit? I'd like to get it soon, but I've only got full sized pistols and think it'd be nice to have a small carry pistol to train with while I wait patiently and for a very long time for the state to issue such a permit.
This got me wondering: Do you NEED a permit to own a handgun? I'm 25, no criminal record (pulled over once for a headlight out and a parking ticket, once). I'm going to the range tomorrow, and since I don't have a permit to carry, whats the 'legal way' of me transporting my firearm from my house, to a car, to the range and back?
Thanks for hitting me with some knowledge.
EDIT: And I know I can't post/buy/sell anything in those forums so don't need to point it out. I can't afford anything I want right now anyhow. Just window shopping and wishing.
