 The Ohio Attorney General's office has made available to new Concealed Carry Law publication through their website. This publication is required reading for all CHL applicants, and is available free of charge. This edition of the publication also includes notice of the legality of open carry on page 18. Open Carry This will hopefully help cut down on the numerous incidents OFCC has become aware of in the past few months of citizens being harassed for open carry of firearms by law enforcement officers who are unaware of the legality of that act. OFCC thanks the AG office for this first step towards fixing this problem. The "use caution" part refers to the fact that you may still encounter a LEO who is unaware that open carry is legal. It is recommended by OFCC that anyone openly carrying a firearm carry a copy of the AG's book and inform any LEO who claims it is illegal that you were simply following the AG's booklet and politely offer to let him or her see it. In addition to downloading a PDF of the booklet from this link, you can also request a physical copy by clicking here. |
