Can a non-Indiana resident apply for an Indiana handgun license?

  1. Yes, if they work in Indiana

  2. No, it's only for residents

  3. Yes, but only for military personnel

  4. No, unless they have a business in Indiana

The correct answer is: Yes, if they work in Indiana

The correct answer is that a non-Indiana resident can apply for an Indiana handgun license if they work in Indiana. This provision allows individuals who are not residents of the state but are employed there to obtain a handgun license, recognizing the special circumstances of their work-related needs. The other options don't accurately reflect the regulations concerning non-residents. The assertion that only residents can apply for a license overlooks key exceptions for employed individuals. Similarly, suggesting that military personnel are the only non-residents eligible fails to recognize that other non-residents can also apply based on their employment status. Lastly, the notion that a business presence in Indiana is necessary for obtaining a handgun license does not align with the regulations permitting employment-based applications.
