What is the minimum age to apply for a CCW permit in Ohio?

  1. 18 years

  2. 21 years

  3. 25 years

  4. 20 years

The correct answer is: 21 years

To obtain a CCW permit in Ohio, an individual must be at least 21 years of age. This is due to the fact that 21 is the legal age to possess a handgun in the state. Option A is incorrect because while 18 is the age of majority in Ohio, it is still below the legal age to possess a handgun. Option C is incorrect because 25 is above the legal age to possess a handgun and there is no special provision for CCW permits in relation to this age. Option D is also incorrect because 20 is still below the legal age to possess a handgun.
