Rep. Vernon Smith has introduced several pieces of potential legislation in the Indiana General Assembly that Hoosiers should be aware of.
First is HB1011 an "assault rifle", machinegun and "machine gun ammunition" ban
Second is HB1014 which would cause all firearms conficated by law enforcement to be destroyed instead of auctioned off to dealers.
Third is HB1015 which prohibits the sale of firearms on county owned property. (gun shows)
Fourth is HB1016 which will raise the legal age to purchase handguns and "assult rifles" to 21, but also raise eligibility age for a concealed permit to 21 and limit handgun purchases to a max of 2 per calendar month.
Fifth is HB1017 which will require passing an "approved" firearms saftey course for a permit and before a handgun is transfered to a purchaser. It also reinstates the 7 day waiting period that was removed from Indiana Law after the background check system went live.
