I know i read somewhere in the new laws (and now i can not find it) about changes in carrying a firearm on an ATV.
Do they still have to be cased?
Or is it legal to have them unloaded in say regular u shape carriers, you can buy from the sporting good stores?
If i remember correctly it said something about secured.
Is the rubber bands that come with the holders considered secure?
If not, what would be your understanding of secured?
Thanks in advance!!

Here is the statute you were looking for. I posted the sections pertaining to firearms. Let me know if you need anything further.
IC 14-16-1-23 Restrictions on operation; exceptions Sec. 23. (a) An individual shall not operate a vehicle under any of the following conditions: (9) While transporting on or in the vehicle a firearm, unless the firearm is: (A) unloaded; and (B) securely encased or equipped with and made inoperative by a manufactured keylocked trigger housing mechanism. (b) Subsection (a)(9) does not apply to a person who is carrying a firearm: (1) if: (A) the firearm is a handgun; and (B) the person has been issued an unlimited handgun license to carry a handgun under IC 35-47-2; (2) if: (A) the firearm is a handgun; and (B) the person is not required to possess a license to carry a handgun under IC 35-47-2-2; or (3) if the person carrying the firearm is operating the vehicle on property that the person: (A) owns; (B) has a contractual interest in; (C) otherwise legally possesses; or (D) has permission from a person described in clauses (A) through (C) to possess a firearm on.
