Can local governments in Indiana enact their own firearm laws?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Yes, but they cannot be stricter than state laws

  4. Yes, but only with state approval

The correct answer is: No

No, local governments in Indiana cannot enact their own firearm laws. The state legislature has the sole authority to regulate firearms, therefore local governments do not have the power to create laws that are stricter or looser than the state laws. Some states allow local governments to enact their own firearm laws with state approval, but Indiana does not currently have this system in place.
