What must be done if a handgun license is lost or destroyed in Indiana?

  1. Report to Indiana State Police within 48 hours

  2. Nothing, the license is still valid

  3. Apply for a new license immediately

  4. Report to the local police department within 5 working days

The correct answer is: Report to Indiana State Police within 48 hours

If a handgun license is lost or destroyed in Indiana, it is important to report it to the Indiana State Police within 48 hours. This is necessary in order to ensure that the license is cancelled and a new one can be issued. It is not sufficient to simply apply for a new license or report it to the local police department within 5 working days. B is incorrect because a lost or destroyed license cannot be assumed to still be valid. C is incorrect because it is necessary to report the lost or destroyed license to the Indiana State Police before applying for a new one. D is incorrect because the local police department does not have the authority to cancel and issue handgun licenses.
