What is Ohio's stance on 'open carry' without a CCW license?

  1. Prohibited

  2. Allowed with some restrictions

  3. Allowed without restrictions

  4. Only allowed in rural areas

The correct answer is: Allowed without restrictions

Option A Prohibited - This is not the correct answer because Ohio is actually an "open carry" state, meaning that individuals are allowed to openly carry a firearm in public without a CCW license. Option B: Allowed with some restrictions - While this may seem like a plausible option, it is not entirely accurate. Ohio does not have any specific restrictions on open carry, so individuals are allowed to openly carry a firearm without a license. Option D: Only allowed in rural areas - This is incorrect because open carry is allowed throughout the entire state of Ohio, not just in rural areas. Additionally, open carry is not limited to specific geographic locations, as long as the individual is not in a prohibited area such as a school or government building.
