If this becomes law, here are the changes:
You can only legally carry a concealed handgun if you are:
- Not legally prohibited from possessing or receiving a firearm under 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(1) to (9) or under section 2923.13 of the Revised Code or any other Revised Code provision;
and - Satisfy all of the criteria listed in divisions (D) (1)(a) to (j), (m), (p), (q), and (s) of section 2923.125 of the Revised Code. (This does not apply to active duty military carrying proof of equivalent training.)
In addition:
- Notification is only required if asked.
- If you have an actual license you no longer need to carry your CHL with you.
- You can get previous notification violations expunged.
- Failure to notify is now an M2 instead of M1 and you no longer lose your CHL.
So, although a step forward, I find the amended changes distasteful and wonder how long it will take to correct them.
