Who issues Ohio's Concealed Handgun Licenses (CHL)?

The Ohio Attorney General
County Sheriff's Offices
Local Police Departments
The Ohio Department of Public Safety

The correct answer is: County Sheriff's Offices

County Sheriff's Offices issue Ohio's Concealed Handgun Licenses (CHL) because they handle the application process and background checks. The Ohio Attorney General and Local Police Departments do not have the authority to issue CHLs. The Ohio Department of Public Safety plays a role in the process by creating forms and training materials, but it is not responsible for issuing CHLs. Therefore, while all of these options may be involved in some way with CHLs in Ohio, the County Sheriff's Offices are the correct answer as they are the agency that actually issues the licenses.
