We consider weak solutions of the spatially inhomogeneous Landau equation with hard potentials ($\gamma \in (0,1]$), under the assumption that mass, energy, and entropy densities are under control. In this regime, with arbitrary initial data, we show that solutions satisfy pointwise Gaussian upper and lower bounds in the velocity variable. This is different from the behavior in the soft potentials case ($\gamma <0$), where Gaussian estimates are known not to hold without corresponding assumptions on the initial data. Our upper bounds imply weak solutions are $C^\infty$ in all three variables, and that continuation of solutions is governed only by the mass, energy, and entropy.
