In the vast majority of states, a person does not need a permit simply to own a gun. A person must be 18 or 21 years old to buy a gun. Generally, laws forbidding the carrying of handguns include limited exceptions.
Second, you do not need an Ohio concealed carry license to transport a weapon in your motor vehicle. Instead, you need to keep the loaded or unloaded firearm in a location you can only reach by exiting the vehicle.
You are able to carry a concealed handgun in your car without a CCW License. The guns can be on your person, can be loaded, they do not have to visible, and can be stored anywhere in your vehicle.
As long as you meet the law's requirements, the sheriff must issue a concealed-handgun license within 45 days of receiving your properly completed application. The license lasts for five years.
