Indiana discontinuing the lifetime carry license? Has anyone else heard this?
Today, at one of my local gun shops I overheard a discussion about lifetime carry permits. The two gentlemen (one an employee) were saying that Indiana will soon stop (possibly within a month or two) issuing their lifetime licenses and return to just issuing the four year permits. I've tried doing some basic research on google with the only results being from back in 2009.
Pretty much just curious if anyone has heard anything similar. I hope I posted this in the right section. Thanks, Marty |

Nothing is listed about it at www.handgunlaw.us I also haven't seen any thing on it at the NRA.org website either.
I'd guess it's just gun shop talk.

Thanks
Thanks for the response Kreyzhorse. I had my doubts but they both seemed rather adamant so I thought I would ask here.
Also, what an awesome website. Had never seen it before so thanks for posting that link. Thanks, Marty |

Honestly? You can discard about 99.9% of what you hear at gun shops, whether it be from the shop staff or other customers.

There have been rumors that the lifetime LTCH was going to be abolished since very shortly after it was enacted in '06. After five years, we still have lifetime LTCH so I'm not going to get excited until I hear something more substantial than gunshop gossip.

How do lifetime licenses affect reciprocity agreements?
Just curious, because some states are only reciprocal with others that have very similar requirements to their own. Not sure if the Indiana lifetime carry has had any negative effects with regard to reciprocity. |

If the state legislature passed laws to make lifetime licenses a reality, wouldn't the legislature have to rescind those laws? Or they would have to be overturned by the courts?
