Well, Chip may be right.
In another thread, I was admonished for suggesting that one need not keep their LTCH on their person when carrying a handgun. IN Code was changed recently and DROPPED that language. Previous language was "in possession of" and now reads "shall not carry....without being licensed". It is also (somewhat) common knowledge that LE will "call in" your information to check your LTCH status, even if you present them with your pink card.
So, I figured I would ask the Indiana State Police via their email address: FirearmsQuestions@isp.IN.gov
The question:
Is one required to carry their LTCH on their person when carrying a handgun?
Their Answer:
Yes just like your driver’s license.
I suppose one day I will be a test case for this, as I routinely carry a handgun without having my wallet (or any form of ID) with me.
