That being said, they DID get the city ord. regarding what a "loaded" weapon is changed quickly... matches state law.632.06 MINORS CARRYING FIREARMS.

Re: City of Avon
well, it doesn't actually go AGAINST code... I just didn't think that the city could make the same law as the state law... (and the State's law is an F5 vs. M3 for City)

Re: City of Avon
Bad ordinance. Needs repealed.
As per R.C. 2923.21 and .211...
A person under 18 cannot purchase a firearm, nor can they be sold one.
A person under 21 cannot purchase a handgun, nor can they be sold one (unless they are LEO or Military)
A person shall not furnish firearms/handguns to those under 18/21 (unless under adult supervision)
and, of course, no straw purchases.
There are no state laws against someone under age having or taking possession of a firearm.

Re: City of Avon
Actually, a person under 21 can purchase a handgun if he is military, but he cannot be sold or given one. Bit of problem with the code.MyWifeSaidYes wrote:Bad ordinance. Needs repealed.

Wasn't this change something done in the state legislature fairly recently? Spearheaded by a pro-gun rep or senator who, while making a nice gesture, ended up passing a law that doesn't really do anything useful to assist the under-21 military folks wanting to purchase a handgun?
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Yes. It's a technical error which needs correcting. Maybe we can get it into this session.Brian D. wrote:schmieg wrote: Actually, a person under 21 can purchase a handgun if he is military, but he cannot be sold or given one. Bit of problem with the code.
