Indiana Handgun Law, Second Edition by Ciyou

[Protest]

Someone here, maybe Fenway, recommended in a thread that it would be a good purchase, so I bought it! I found it at Amazon being sold by a 3rd party seller. When it arrived, it came in a box with a lawyer's label and a lawyer's business card in the book and the book was in NEW condition. I paid $24.95 IIRC plus shipping.

Turns out, the 3rd party seller is the author himself.

After I read it, I'll let you know my thoughts.

Yup. You can meet the lawyer's wife and probably the lawyer if you go to the 1500.

Excellent book, too.

Here's the [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/shops/storefront/index.html?ie=UTF8&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&sellerID=A2K6YTQ6FU7AFW"]seller's page on Amazon[/ame]. I thoroughly recommend buying.

Just ordered a copy from Amazon. Didn't these used to be very expensive, I think that is why I didn't order one before when the recommendation was made here in the forum. At any rate it will be good to get a copy.

So does the book seem to be written in language that non lawyers can understand?

Yes, I'm extremely pleased with it. He also provides helpful real life examples of the laws in question.

I recommend that you also purchase the first edition. The two editions are complementary. That is, the second edition expands on the first edition instead of replacing it.

Good book. I usually have some of them for purchase when I teach a UT CFP class.

I'm guessing this one (click here) is the first edition since it has an older date and a different ISBN?

I've got both the first and second additions shortly after I got my LTCH. Highly recommend it especially since it's like a "Gun Laws for Dummies" type book. Not really for dummies, but a great reference for all of us.

EDIT: Yea, I didn't look at the date of the other thread.

Excellent book! The problem with it though is that if everyone here read it, the number of new threads would decline.

I think it's a very valuable book...I was impressed enough that I wrote down his name and office phone number on a piece of paper that I carry next to my LTCH. I earnestly hope that I will never have to use any of my firearms for anything but practice and target shooting...but if it were ever to come to that, I would want an attorney like him to be pulling for me.

Just received the second edition today. I should have gotten this book a long time ago. Is impressive. Now I have a question. Exactly what is in the first edition that is not in the second edition? Do I need the first edition?

 

[JohnP82]

Excellent book! Very good info and great to have Congrats on your purchase, enjoy

 

[jimbo-indy]

Get bopth the first edition (blue cover) and the Second Edition (red cover) if you can. The second edition expands on the first and covers some changes in the law. For the real info, you need both. Worth several times the price.
I agree with earlier poster, if all INGO members would read these, there would be far fewer posts with the same old basic questions. Should be required reading for all LTCH holders or at least those who want to stay out of jail. I reread mine at least once a year.

A couple of years ago at the 1500 they were selling both book with a nice discount if you bought both.

 

[bw210]

Just ordered - If this is half is good as people post, this SHOULD be mandatory reading for Indiana LTCH. Looking forward to my copy in a few days or so.

 

[sharpshot82]

does it explain where all you can carry? laws about carrying in a vehicle?

All that and beyond. It explains places you wouldn't even consider.

Here is the 2nd edition table of contents. It doesn't do it complete justice but gives a general idea of what's contained. Finding a law book this inexpensive is unheard of, just ask any 1st year law student.
