OH will recognize IN LTCH in the near future!!!!!!

[ThatOneKid]

Obviously, not before March 23, they can't. After that, unless something I've not yet seen grants exemption, I would say "no".

Much sad

No permit is needed to carry a firearm openly in Ohio, only to conceal.

Unfortunately, the main point of conflict was that they consider carrying in a vehicle to be carrying concealed so that fact was pointless while traveling in or through the state.

The vehicle thing always annoyed me. What if you were in a jeep with the doors off and it was on your outside hip?

Glad our easterly neighbor is warming up to us. Is it too early to go in for a kiss and butt grab?

just wait a year or two. You don't want to get nailed and forever be known on INGO as that one kid Who did that thing

The way their code is written, I think even openly carrying on a motorcycle is considered concealed.

Let's see how they respond to the butt grab before committing further.

Of course I meant after March 23. I guess everyone between ages 18 and 21 are out of luck.

Yes. And no worse off than you are right now, but in fact better: You at least have an expectation that in the next three years, you will be able to carry there.

Contrast that with my experience in my later teens: A few months before I turned 18, the law changed to where the age to lawfully drink alcoholic beverages was 19. Wanna guess what it did the following year? Yep. Went up to 21. I was sure that when I turned 20, they were going to bounce it up to 23 or something similar. (they didn't.)

Now, that didn't matter to me, as I had no intention of drinking. Still don't, even now, but the Texas legislature doing that teasing act seemed kinda cruel, even though I knew it obviously wasn't directed at me.

In your case, the OH legislature is where your ire belongs, IMHO

Wow thanks for the info. I am currently in Ohio. I had read that the gun need be away from ammo and locked separately in the vehicle. My thoughts were to bring so I may continue to practice for some USPSA shoots to start in spring. Well I guess I'll wait on that.
tahnk you

This would be great. I visit Ohio more often than any other state.

So, is this going to put a big dent in the Utah permit class business?

It very well might. I've had my Utah for a couple years now and since I've already got it I will keep it current. At one time I thought about getting certified to teach the Utah here. Someone visits the area now that's been doing it for a long time and I thought twice about it. Once the rumor Ohio was going to do this started I completely flushed the idea. As much as I would have loved to take a drive to Utah to get my certification and spend a week there for fun, I can't justify it now if it will be useless.

Utah permit won;t be useless. Just not needed in Ohio. Thankfully, more states are starting to recognize Indiana permits so things are better, generally than they were, say, 5 years ago. Now if we could just get Illinois, New York, Massachusetts, etc to fall in line....

Agree, it won't be completely useless, just mostly for my location. Almost dead center of the state as far as N to S goes, but 3 miles from the Ohio line. The ONLY reason people in this area get the Utah is for Ohio. I'll keep it because I already did the training and it isn't expensive to keep. I won't take the time or expense of traveling to Utah to get my certification to be an instructor like I planned on though.

If I do decide to travel it will always be either straight South or West. I have no desire to go East, especially N. East, for any reason. Even if Illinois ever does accept ours I'll go far out of my way to avoid that entire state like the plague.

I live so close to OH (less than five minute drive) that this is very depressing. I'll be 21 in September though I guess.

Can someone save me from reading all 16 pages. Has this passed? With some age limits? Thanks any info would be appreciated.

Yes, it passed. Takes effect some time in March (the 23rd or so, I believe?). No age limits per se, other than extant age limits (21+ to carry concealed in Ohio).

 

[JT Meeks]

Good news..

 

[lizerdking]

Ok, so what other fun rules do we need to obey when visiting O Hi O?

Looks like must inform and signs carry the weight of law... Any others to trip us up?

I just recently drove from Indy to Detroit and tossed Mr. Glock in the trunk someplace east of Ft. Wayne, and took it out when I got to Motown, then reverse on the way home, saw the Home Again in Indiana welcomes you sign and geared back up, wont have to do it anymore, good deal.

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

Why not just take I-69 North to M-60 west to I-94 and stay strapped up? It's faster, anyway.

Considering that the cops in Ohio are some of the MOST anti gun cops I have ever seen I can't understand why anyone would choose to go in there with a sidearm. Some of them couldn't care less if you have a permit or not. They don't believe "citizens" should have guns even if the law says it's OK. Illinois is about the same. I lived in Illinois for 12 years and today I will gladly drive all the way around that State rather than go through it. And I have several times.
