Kings Island concealed carry

[Magyars]

Planning on taking a couple of our Grandsons to Kings Island in a couple weeks.
Does anyone know about metal detectors, or legal prohibition?

I don't recall magnetometers. Are you going to ride any rides? Last time I was there, I was riding rides, no gun on me, legal or no. It would hurt too much.

Personally I do not carry at Disney, Cedar Point, ect. Sometimes the coasters are a bit tight.

On a side note, maybe I missed it if something changed, but I thought Ohio did not recognize Indianas permit.

Ohio has recognized Indiana's LTCH for several years now.

Security Procedures

The safety of our guests and associates is our number one priority, and we have implemented several enhanced security procedures at all entrance gates. As part of the process:

• Guests arriving at the park will go through metal detection.
• All bags, purses, backpacks, waist packs, etc. are subject to search prior to entering.
• Sharp objects (including pocket knives and metal chains), firearms, or other items that could be considered a weapon are strictly prohibited and should be left at home or secured in your vehicle.
• Please see our separate FAQ on outside food and beverages.

We use a variety of methods in securing our parks including uniformed and plain clothes officers, and video surveillance monitoring.
Kings Island does not tolerate guests who fight and/or harass other guests while on our property. People who engage in this behavior are subject to being ejected and potentially banned from the park, and may be subject to arrest by local police.

I was at KI a few months ago. They had walk through metal detectors as well as wands. Not everyone went through one, but most did. They also search every single bag/purse/pack that comes into the park.

On e a friend got stopped for having a cheap ass worthless knife on her keychain. They got pissed when she chucked it in the trash.

I'd skip the gun.

Ohio is a permitless carry state and honors all other states' permits.

I thought you meant that famous and rare Glock 7 !

Ahh movies. They are always so accurate about guns. I can't recall a time when a movie was ever realistic about firearms. And the anti-gun idiots believe anything they see. My favorites are the "undetectable" Glock 7 in Die Hard 2 and the "armor piercing" hand-gun bullets in Lethal Weapon 3. So many people believe those are true.

That was my pet peeve about Reacher, the series. Subsonic 90 grain 9mm and a 32 caliber revolver.
