Xenia Gazette: Concealed gun law approved by state
This article in the Xenia Gazette provides a good summary of the restrictions for applicants as specified by the Senate's version of HB274.
It also includes a quote from Senator Steve Austria, who, while acknowledging the bills' imperfection, said that "he feels that the Senate’s version of the legislation includes measures that will make communities safer, such as, keeping guns out of the hands of convicted felons."
Funny- we thought the law already did that. Concealed Carry Reform was supposed to be about allowing law abiding citizens the opportunity to carry a weapon for self-defense.
