Indiana enacted constitutional carry in 2022, allowing law-abiding residents who are legally permitted to possess a firearm to carry it openly or concealed without a state-issued permit.

Frequently Asked Questions About Shotguns

1. What shotguns does Summit Firearms carry?

+

Summit Firearms carries a broad selection of shotguns including pump action, semi-automatic, over/under, side-by-side, lever action, and bolt action configurations from well-regarded manufacturers. Options span field hunting models, home defense configurations, competitive clay target platforms, and dedicated slug guns for Indiana deer season across multiple gauges. Stop in or check online for current shotgun inventory across all available brands, platforms, and configurations.

2. What shotgun is best for Indiana waterfowl hunting?

+

For Indiana waterfowl hunting along the region’s rivers and wetlands, a 12 gauge pump action or semi-automatic shotgun with a 28- or 30-inch barrel and a choke rated for steel shot is the standard recommendation. Semi-automatic shotguns are particularly popular for waterfowl because their gas-operated or inertia systems soften the recoil of heavy steel loads over a long hunt in the blind. Federal law requires non-toxic shot for all migratory waterfowl hunting in Indiana. Always verify current Indiana DNR regulations before your hunt.

3. What shotgun is best for Indiana pheasant hunting?

+

For Indiana pheasant hunting across the agricultural fields and grassland cover of Northeast Indiana, a 12 or 20 gauge pump action or semi-automatic shotgun with an improved cylinder or modified choke and #4, #5, or #6 lead shot field loads covers most flushing distances effectively. Over/under configurations are also popular among upland hunters who appreciate the refined trigger and classic field handling of a break-action shotgun. Lead shot is legal for pheasant in Indiana. Always check current Indiana DNR season dates and regulations before heading afield.

4. Can I use a shotgun for deer hunting in Indiana?

+

Yes. Shotguns with slugs are a legal and widely used option for Indiana firearm deer season. Rifled slugs through a smooth-bore barrel and sabot slugs through a fully rifled barrel are both effective at typical deer hunting distances across Indiana’s agricultural and timber land. Dedicated bolt action slug guns deliver the highest slug accuracy, while pump and semi-automatic platforms with rifled barrels also perform well. Always verify current Indiana DNR regulations for your specific zone and season before purchasing a deer hunting shotgun.

5. What is the difference between a pump action and a semi-automatic shotgun?

+

A pump action shotgun requires the shooter to manually cycle the action between shots by working the fore-end, making it mechanically simple, highly reliable, and compatible with virtually any load from light target shells to heavy magnum rounds. A semi-automatic shotgun cycles automatically after each shot using gas operation or inertia, enabling faster follow-up shots and notably reduced felt recoil. Semi-autos are popular for waterfowl and high-volume hunting days, while pump actions are valued for their load versatility and dependability in demanding field conditions.

6. What is an over/under shotgun best used for?

+

Over/under shotguns are the premier platform for competitive clay target shooting including sporting clays, skeet, and trap, offering a refined trigger, consistent swing, and the precise fit and balance that competitive shooters demand. They are also popular among upland hunters for pheasant, grouse, and dove hunting where two well-placed shots at close to moderate range cover most field situations. The over/under’s break-action design is mechanically simple and allows quick visual confirmation of an unloaded chamber, making it a safe and practical choice for all experience levels.

7. Are short-barreled shotguns legal in Indiana?

+

Short-barreled shotguns with a barrel under 18 inches or an overall length under 26 inches are regulated under the National Firearms Act. They are legal to own in Indiana for eligible residents but require ATF registration, a $200 tax stamp, and approval before taking possession. The process typically takes several months. Summit Firearms can assist customers through the NFA transfer process for any short-barreled shotgun configurations they are interested in.

8. Does Summit Firearms run background checks on all shotgun sales?

+

Yes. All shotgun purchases at Summit Firearms include ATF Form 4473 and a NICS background check as required by federal law. Buyers must be at least 18 years of age and meet all applicable federal and Indiana state eligibility requirements to complete a shotgun purchase. Summit Firearms complies fully with all applicable state and federal regulations governing the sale and transfer of shotguns.
