Yes, the following NFA items (as of Jan, 2010) are legal in the state of Indiana.

- Suppressors

- Machine Guns

- Short Barreled Rifles

For a suppressor, you are going to need to find a Class III dealer. You will then fill out an ATF Form 4 in duplicate. You will affix a passport photo to each Form 4. You will then get fingerprinted by an agency in your town authorized to do so. Then, you will get your Chief Law Enforcement Officer to fill out your Form 4 if he approves it. You will then fill out a Certificate of Compliance. Next comes the $200 check to the BATF. You'll put that all in an envelope and mail it to the BATF.

In short, find a Class III dealer in your state to help you out.

Yes, silencers, which are also known as suppressors, are legal to own in Indiana's for both rifles and handguns. However, they are regulated under federal law, and buyers have to go through the proper channels and obtain the necessary paperwork from the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives) to purchase one.

No. Silencers are against federal law, so no state law can over ride it. ------ Actually, that is incorrect. Suppressors (silencers) are quite legal in the US. Federal law restricts them, but does not prohibit them. The federal requirements are not difficult to meet. Checking PA state law it appears that suppressors are also quite legal in that state so long as you comply with the federal requirements.
