What type of firearm safety training is required for a CHL in Ohio?

  1. NRA-certified firearms safety course

  2. Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy course

  3. Any firearms safety course taught by a certified instructor

  4. No training is required

The correct answer is: Any firearms safety course taught by a certified instructor

In Ohio, the only requirement for obtaining a CHL (concealed handgun license) is completing a firearms safety course taught by a certified instructor. Option A, an NRA-certified course, may meet this requirement but is not the only option. Option B, the Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy course, is not applicable because it is meant for law enforcement officers, not civilians. Option D, no training required, is incorrect as completing a firearms safety course is a mandatory requirement for obtaining a CHL in Ohio. Thus, option C, any firearms safety course taught by a certified instructor, is the correct answer.
