What is the penalty for carrying a concealed weapon without a license in Ohio?

  1. A fine only

  2. Mandatory community service

  3. Possible jail time

  4. A warning for the first offense

The correct answer is: Possible jail time

Without a license, carrying a concealed weapon in Ohio is considered a misdemeanor offense. This means that it can result in both a fine and possible jail time. Option A is incorrect because it only mentions a fine, whereas option C includes the possibility of jail time. Option B, mandatory community service, is also incorrect as it is not a specified penalty for carrying a concealed weapon without a license in Ohio. Finally, option D, a warning for the first offense, is incorrect as carrying a concealed weapon without a license is not a minor offense and is punishable by law. Thus, the correct penalty is option C, which includes the possibility of both a fine and jail time.
