I saw a major retailer selling 40-round PMAG Generation 3 in Columbus over the weekend. They also carry 90-round drum for AR 15 on their shelf. They've been selling them around here for years, that doesn't mean that they are legal to use. Legal to use, in appropriately registered weapons. |

So whats the news on this? Did it get repealed or not? Really? The post immediately preceding yours answered that question. Let me paraphrase for those unwilling to read a paragraph: IT STILL EXISTS. I get that, but what the hell is the status of the bill that would repeal it? Last I heard it was supposed to be addressed when congress reconvened in September and now I can't find anything about it. Come to think of it, there were a ton of pro-gun bills introduced that I now can't find updates to. |

You can check the status of the bills through the http://www.legislature.state.oh.us site. All you need to do is find the bill number like House Bill 191 and on the left side there is a Status Report of Legislation button. Most are tied up in committees right now, and probably will be for quite some time. This stuff takes time, if it is anything like the definition of a loaded firearm bill your looking at almost a year before it will get through the committees and even be considered for a vote. |

I hate the snail pace of such bills and all but I am glad it is happening. Maybe someday

No prohibition on owning such a magazine.
It's on the buyer to not use them illegally. |

CTD, Natchez and Midway all just confirmed it is illegal for them to ship 33 round glock mags to OH... For what its worth. If they can't, I can't.

View Quote Three retailers choosing not to sell to OH residents in NO way confirms that it is illegal for you to sell and mail 33 round glock mags to OH. The only thing that is illegal is for someone to have an unregistered "dangerous ordinance" according to the Ohio Revised Code. Unfortunately we also have to deal with one particular line that list firearms capable of shooting more than 31 rounds without reloading as "dangerous ordinance". The magazine itself is not enough, the magazine and a gun it would fit in is not enough, ONLY a magazine with a greater capacity than 30 inserted into a centerfire semi auto meets the definition of dangerous ordinance. Mags with a capacity greater than 30 are still legal to buy, sell, own. Just not legal to use with a non registered semi auto centerfire weapon. |

Thank you. That is what I thought everyone was saying but wanted to be sure.
I know this law is mostly ignored but also don't want to run into that one police officer who is having a bad day. This is one of the main reasons I want to SBR a rifle. |

Belt feds must only load 31 rounds.
So I can keep the entire belt intact? Don't have to break the belt? |

I just purchased a AR in 9MM and was hit with the hard truth that I can't get any of the 32rd magstried to order some from Natchez and was denied, guess I will have to make due with the 25rd.

View Quote Technically you need to pull the belt apart or put a huge space (30+ spaces) empty after every 30 rounds. No one bothers with doing this but do something stupid and they can tack that on. If firing blanks with a blank adapter (i.e. barrel is obstructed) it is not a problem by Ohio law. This will really piss off any DA with an ax to grind but you are safe. I confirmed this through the Columbus Prosecutor when asking about some blank fire for historical displays. He had some cases go against the city that were gang related due to the plugged barrel part. I do not know what section of law this falls under but it comes from a high level source. Of course you can not fire live ammo this way so it is not a perfect law. |

I see HB191 is still tied up in committee, as all the other pro-gun bills likely are. What is the likelihood that these actually get through committee and voted on before they die in December? I sort of followed some Ohio gun legislation in the past (vehicle carry reform and bar carry, for example), but didn't really pay attention to timeframes. A year sitting in committee seems like a long time for a bill with any viability.

I've emailed my representative and they didn't make it sound like anything would happen. It will just die in committee.

Got this from my rep today:
Dear Mr. DaveyDug, Thank you for contacting my office regarding your support of gun rights bills, specifically House Bill 191, which would remove from the definition of “automatic firearm” in the Weapons Control Law a provision that includes in that definition any semi-automatic firearm designed or specially adapted to fire more than 31 cartridges without reloading, other than a firearm that chambers only .22 cartridges. I understand and appreciate your views related to this issue. H.B. 191 was introduced by Rep. John Becker and is currently under consideration by the House Transportation, Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee. As I am not a member of this committee, I have not had the opportunity to fully understand all of the bill’s implications. However, as the legislative process unfolds, I will be sure to keep your thoughts in mind. In general, as a State Representative who has received an “A” rating from the Buckeye Firearms Association (http://www.buckeyefirearms.org/ohio-house-2014), I believe my record is clear on this issue as I am known to always look for opportunities to support our state and federal constitutions. Thank you again for contacting my office. I always appreciate the opportunity to better understand the views and concerns of my constituents. Please do not hesitate to contact me again in the future if there is ever anything I can do to help you. Best regards, John Patterson State Representative House District 99 |
