    Lafayette, Indiana
    state of Indy

    Indianapolis is a city, not a state. So relax.:D

    asquire, this misinformation is a variant of Kirk's First Law of the Internet: if it is the law in Texas, it is the law everywhere.

    Here's the dynamic. Someone reads something about another state in a gun rag, Internet board, or gun shoppe, it sticks in their head "pistols must be concealed, I can't carry into bars, there an overall round limitation, inter alia, ad naseum".

    Trying to be helpful that person will assume since they read it, 1. it applies to Indiana, 2. it is correct.

    The gun culture is full of this nonsense. You are doing the right thing by looking it up.:)

    don't forget turkey has a 3 round limit also

    That is not true. Here is the portion defining weapons allowed to be used for turkey's (no capacity limits)

    (2) Take a wild turkey except with the use of one (1) of the following:
    (A) A shotgun or muzzleloading shotgun:
    (i) not smaller than 20 gauge; and
    (ii) not larger than 10 gauge;
    loaded only with shot of size 4, 5, 6, 7, or 7½.
    (B) A bow and arrows, including crossbows as defined in 312 IAC 9-3-4(g), with the following restrictions:
    (i) A person must not use a:
    (AA) long bow; or
    (BB) compound bow;
    of less than thirty-five (35) pounds pull.
    (ii) Arrows must be equipped with metal or metal-edged (or flint, chert, or obsidian napped) broadheads.
    (iii) A person must not use a:

    Guess that means I can't use a Serbu Super Shorty or a Kegg to turkey hunt, eh? Bummer.... :whistle:

    The DNR Regs state waterfowl and migratory birds. this is a Broader definition that waterfowl and doves. (I am no expert but surly Doves are not the only migratory birds we have here)

    Quail, to my knowledge are considered upland game along with pheasants so no restriction.
