Ohio Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) Practice Exam

Under Ohio law, which of these disqualifies a person from obtaining a CCW permit?

1. A conviction for driving under the influence

2. A history of speeding tickets

3. Being dishonorably discharged from the military

4. A conviction for a minor drug offense

The correct answer is: Being dishonorably discharged from the military

This option applies because being dishonorably discharged from the military indicates a history of disqualifying behaviors and character traits, such as misconduct, serious criminal offenses, and a lack of trustworthiness. Option A is incorrect because a conviction for driving under the influence does not necessarily indicate a propensity for violence or other dangerous behaviors. Option B is incorrect because a history of speeding tickets, while potentially indicative of recklessness, would not be considered a disqualifying factor in obtaining a CCW permit. Option D is incorrect because a conviction for a minor drug offense, while a disqualifying factor in some states, would not necessarily be considered disqualifying in Ohio.
