I need a quick answer please CCW and drinking
I believe that I am not allowed to drin AT ALL while carrying in Ohio. I have a friend who says she can go to a bar or restaurant and drink as long as she stays under the legal limit and her ccw instructor confirmed that.. she wants to place a wager...who is right?

Re: I need a quick answer please CCW and drinking
What's the question?
Drinking at a restaurant is a felony, irregardless of the amount.
Drinking at your home is legal as long as you are not intoxicated.
That's the short answer.

Re: I need a quick answer please CCW and drinking
she says she can go to a bar and drink a beer while carrying as long as she does not go over the legal BAC limit... I say ANY drinking at a bar or restaurant while carrying is a felony...who is right?

(A) No person shall possess a firearm in any room in which any person is consuming beer or intoxicating liquor in a premises for which a D permit has been issued under Chapter 4303. of the Revised Code or in an open air arena for which a permit of that nature has been issued.
(1) This section does not apply to any of the following:
(e) Any person who is carrying a valid concealed handgun license, as long as the person is not consuming beer or intoxicating liquor or under the influence of alcohol or a drug of abuse.
I see no limit there. I'd say you are right.

I wish these instructors would just say I don't know if they don't really understand the law...

Re: I need a quick answer please CCW and drinking
Steve if I was in your position I would print out that section and go hunt down the instructor. You would be doing future students a huge favor. Past students too if the instructor sacked up and did the right thing.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Wondering if the instructor or the lawyer will do the time if your friend gets popped?
