Yes, it is legal to purchase a gun and transport it (unloaded and in secure packaging) to your home from the store where you purchased it. You can also transport it to and from a repair shop or to a new residence (within Indiana?) if you move. Other than that, the only place you are allowed to actually carry the gun is in your own place of dwelling. (Not sure if this means inside your house or just on your property? Probably inside?)

You can now get a lifetime handgun carrying permit in Indiana (if you are over 18 and otherwise qualify). It ends up being $125 total. You pay $50 cash to your local sherriff/police department, then send a money order in for $75 to the state. They mail it to you a few weeks later.

(For hunting rifles and shotguns, I believe you can own and carry those without a permit.. Just make sure you have a hunting permit!)

The process for buying a handgun in Indiana is the same as purchasing a long gun... you go to the dealer, fill out the Form 4473, then the dealer calls in to NICS for your background check. If you get a "proceed", you're then able to purchase your handgun.
