Ohioans For Concealed Carry

Ohio --(Ammoland.com)- Since 2004 one of this organization’s biggest legislative goals was to eliminate the sheer number of restaurants you could not enter while carrying a concealed handgun in Ohio.

As of midnight Friday morning we are thrilled to see this law become effective.

Since early August Ohioans For Concealed Carry, through a team of grassroots volunteers in our discussion forums, have been blanketing the State of Ohio’s law enforcement agencies with a three page document educating them on the law changes. Some agencies have literally adopted this actual document as their position, policy, or formal communication to officers on the changes. One Sheriff forwarded the letter as PDF to every single member of his office and mandated that they read and understand the document. You should print this out and read it to become familiar with the changes that are effective immediately – and consider distributing copies to your local law enforcement to re-enforce the fact that the law has changed:
