Can a Person Under Disability Carry a Gun in Ohio?

There are certain qualifications that prevent millions of American (including Ohioans) from owning a gun. In Ohio, the state calls these disabling conditions. We may start with this…the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, gives American citizens the right to own and carry a firearm, subject to certain limitations.

However, it is noted here that Ohio law restricts the possession of a gun when a disabling condition exists on the part of the possessor. So what can we derive from that? What does having weapons while under disability mean? It simply means the defendant possessed a weapon, despite being prohibited from doing so.

If you or a loved one received a charge for having weapons while under disability, immediately call Akron Weapons Defense lawyer Jon Sinn.
