Which of the following firearms is NOT allowed to be carried concealed with an Ohio CCW permit?

  1. A revolver

  2. A semiautomatic pistol

  3. A shotgun

  4. All are allowed

The correct answer is: A shotgun

Although Ohio honors concealed carry permits from many other states, its own state law specifies that a shotgun cannot be carried concealed with a CCW permit. This is because it is considered a long gun, which is typically carried openly or used for hunting or other activities that do not involve concealment. Revolvers and semiautomatic pistols, on the other hand, are allowed to be carried concealed with a CCW permit in Ohio.
