A bill co-authored by Indiana State Senator Jim Tomes (R-Wadesville) has passed the Indiana Senate. The bill would allow Hoosiers to pawn handguns.

Currently, you can only pawn long guns like rifles or sell a handgun to a pawn shop.

Never heard of this but it sounds like a goofy law, good they are changing it. For the most part our laws are gun friendly.

Michigan has the same stupid law.  Surprised me when I moved from Oklahoma, where guns and pawn shops are everywhere.

Quite a few states have laws against using firearms as loan collateral. The laws are usually vestigial from a time when they wanted to regulate the dealings of certain socio-economic/racial groups.
