Narrative:

I was returning to mqj airport on an IFR flight plan from I77. I was being radar vectored by indianapolis approach control for the ILS 25 at mqj airport in IMC. I intercepted the localizer and OM. I extended the landing gear and was VFR about 1100 ft AGL. I rotated the aircraft to land and felt a bump and then the wheels seemed to fold and we experienced a gear up landing. I don't remember if I checked for the gear lights and there was no gear warning horn heard by the pilot or passenger. I believe that I was concentrating on the approach and neglected to xchk for lights.
