      Yeah, pretty much. I have a friend in a state with very similar laws to Indiana. They had bought a DDM4 and was on the range with it later that day. There’s only 13 states that mandate a waiting period.

      2A just short for second amendment rights, part of US constitution that prevents the government from broadly restricting firearms access.

      Felonies are the “big” charges (murder, arson, drug trafficking etc.) That’s a scenario someone’s second amendment can be restricted. Misdemeanor charges are lesser (petty theft, speeding ticket) and not something that would cause a restriction during background checks.
