Huntingson,

this law allows you to carry concealed while deer hunting and during archery season, which used to be illegal. To the best of my knowledge, the only things you cant hunt with a handgun in Ohio are birds and turkey. All hunting scenarios nowallow legal concealed carry.

1. Why does it matter if the 5 inch revolver you are carrying is the
weapon you decide to shoot the deer with during a legal gun season?

2. Who does it affect if your revolver is concealed? You see me in the
woods during deer gun season and I am sitting under a tree. Do you
think it is wise to consider me armed?

3. There is nothing to be confused about. The law as it is written is not
what was the intended meaning. It says you cannot use a LICENSED
concealed firearm. Even if it is legal for taking game. There are no
licensed concealed carry firearms. When HB347 took effect all local
registration of firearms was voided and there is no state firearm
registration. They may have intended for it to mean the gun you are
carrying concealed but that is not what they said.

4. Untilyou are close to me you could not see the 10" .44 contender I
carry. Why does it matter if I cover itup?

5. Tell me any law where you or I have the discrepancy to intrepret the
meaning or intended meaning of a law? If we follow the common
intrepretation of the words that are written we would usually be OK.
In this case, there are no licensed handguns, which is what the law
says it regulates.
