Concealed Carry is obviously a new thing here in Ohio. As you can see from looking at some of the other state's CCW laws they greatly differ. The Mid-West, for example, is a little more lax than say the East Coast.
Ohio is quite diverse as well. For example, if you live out in Harrison County (around Piedmont Lake) you will find mostly a rural population that carries weapons all the time. They always did. Trust me
The Harrison County Sheriff is pretty easy going about it because it is a rural county for the most part with a lot of people who hunt. The same thing for Jefferson County despite being less rural. Sheriff Abdalla doesn't have any problem with it. Therefore the Jefferson & Harrison County police departments are going to be easy going about it.
However, some cities like Columbus and Toledo where not exactly in favor of citizens carrying firearms even though they had to accept the new law. The State Highway Patrol was against it as well. Therefore, if you get pulled over by one of these LEOs then you should expect them to be a little rigid with you. They might even take your weapon from you and have you pick it up at the station at a later time. This had happened.
Ohio did not come out of the gates by specifying every detail of the CCW law mostly because the legislature wanted to see where they were going to need to be more specific. Most of the "Darwin Award" winners here in Ohio will unfortunately make the legislature define it for the rest of us. Here in Ohio there has already been a few "brain-dead" people get busted carrying in Franklin County government buildings, liquer establishments, and a number of other banned places. The Franklin County Sheriff's office arrested four people the first week because they came to the Sheriff's office to apply for their CCW carrying concealed weapons. Go figure.
My strong advice here in Ohio would be to "tread lightly" for the most part until some of the terms of the CCW law has been worked out. Don't be a scape goat. Some people I know carry all over the place for no good reason other than to carry. My prediction will be that they will in time be the legal statistics that you read about in the paper.
Sorry if I got off-topic on this. I am not trying to act like a know-it-all. I am just emphasizing to be cautious about where and how you carry until the Ohio legislature works some of the "kinks" out of concealed carry. Some police officers might not have a sense of humor if they pull someone over who is strapped with a .45 on their side regardless of the law. Be careful out there.
