Indiana has enacted state preemption of firearm laws. However, local laws passed before 1994 or for certain narrowly defined emergency situations are valid.
Indiana is a "shall issue" state for concealed carry. A CCW license will be issued to individuals age 18 or older who meet a number of legal requirements. Grounds for disqualification include a conviction for a felony or for misdemeanor domestic battery. A license can also be denied if the applicant has been arrested for a violent crime and "a court has found probable cause to believe that the person committed the offense charged". Application for a license must be made to the local police department, or absent that to the county police department. It is illegal to carry a concealed weapon on school property or on a school bus, on an airplane or in the controlled section of an airport, on a riverboat gambling cruise, or at the Indiana State Fair. Indiana honors CCW licenses issued by many other states, generally including non-resident licenses. However, Indiana residents, or non-residents with a "regular place of business" in Indiana, must obtain an Indiana license.
Firearms dealers or private individuals may not sell any firearm to someone less that 18 years old, or less that 23 years old if the buyer was "adjudicated a delinquent child for an act that would be a felony if committed by an adult", or to a person who is mentally incompetent or is a drug or alcohol abuser. Possession of automatic weapons by individuals or dealers who have obtained the appropriate federal license is permitted. Short barreled shotguns are prohibited. The possession of any firearm by a person less than 18 years old is subject to a number of restrictions.
Indiana provides lawsuit protection to law abiding manufacturers, sellers, and trade associations for the misuse of firearms by third parties. Lawsuits are permitted for cases of damage or injury caused by defective firearms or ammunition, or breach of contract or warranty.

Yes like most SLAVES make sure you have all of your papers when the police-state asks for them. Of course if a cop on a power trip does lie and take your guns then the other cops on the force will just lie for him anyway.

I would guess 18, but it could be 21. I'm a "bit" older than that, live in Michigan and got a CCW from the state of Indiana.

If you have a legal right to own/possess one then yes. Carry it unloaded, in the trunk or utility box. Check the laws of all 4 states to see the regulations.

I.C. 35-47-2-7 18 to purchase.
Look at 35-47-10-1 also and I cannot find it right now but there was a provision passed a few years ago about getting a carry permit. I think they raised the age to 19. (maybe that didnt pass, that is why I couldnt find it. Thanks KCV).
