What is the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun in Indiana without supervision?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

In Indiana, the minimum age to possess and transport a handgun without supervision is 18 years old. This regulation reflects the state's legal framework regarding firearms, which requires individuals to be at least this age to independently handle handguns. While many young people may have access to firearms at younger ages under specific conditions, such as during supervised activities or with a parent or guardian, the law mandates that individuals must be at least 18 years old to carry, possess, or transport handguns independently. The other age options provided do not align with Indiana's firearms laws, which place 18 years as the threshold for unsupervised possession and transport of handguns.
