Ohio CCW laws

BloodRedStratus · 10-09-2007, 10:18 AM

Does anyone know of a website or the laws reguarding the Ohio CCW and if the surrounding states accept them. The main reason I am asking is my wife just got a new job with a bank and she will be doing some travel into the surrounding states. So if she got her CCW here in Ohio, is her permit accepted if she carries in another state? As I said, most of her travel will be in the surrounding states (MI, IN, KY, WV, and PA) and it looks like all of them have CCW laws.

This might help:
Marc Dann Ohio Attorney General - Concealed Carry

Also, at the gunshows, they have an abreviated version of the 50 states concealed carry laws: Traveler's Guide to the Firearms Laws of the Fifty States

Also, calling the State's Attorney General will give you your answers.

Ohio has just changed their laws.

I know that Ohio doesn't recognize Indiana's, but I think that Indiana might recognize Ohio's.
I have more on my home computer, I'll try to find it 2night.

Ohio's CCW is recognized by all of the surrounding states.

Don't forget to check out your handgun laws book. It should give a website and number to call if you have questions.
