Laws vary place to place. In the US, there are over 2,000 Federal and State gun laws. Some states do not have a law that requires a license to carry a concealed firearm. MOST states do not require a license to openly wear a firearm. Depends on where you are. And you did not tell us where you are, so we can't really answer.

What happens if you get caught without handgun license?

It depends on what you mean. You don't have to have a license to own a gun in the U.S. except in one or two states. To carry the gun concealed on your person, in most states, you must have a permit, but not in all states. In some states, you must have a permit to carry it unconcealed on your person, but not all. If you get caught carrying a gun without a permit when it is required, it depends on that state's law. For instance, in TN, it can be a felony or a misdemeanor, depending on what you are charged with. You can be charged with carrying an illegal weapon, which can be a misdemeanor, or intent to go armed, which is a felony.
