Indiana law preempts local firearm regulation, barring cities and counties from passing or enforcing ordinances on firearms, ammunition, or accessories beyond state law.
Indiana Code 35-47-11.1-2 preempts political subdivisions from regulating firearms, ammunition, firearm accessories, or the ownership, possession, carrying, transportation, registration, transfer, and storage of these items. Local ordinances inconsistent with the state firearms code are unenforceable. IC 35-47-11.1-5 allows aggrieved persons to sue municipalities that enact preempted ordinances and recover actual damages, attorney fees, and costs. Limited exceptions exist for regulating employees and certain municipal property uses.
Local ordinances violating preemption are void; municipalities face civil suits including damages, attorney fees, and court costs from aggrieved persons.
