Update 2015 03 30:

Reciprocity Agreement Documentation is now available for WI and CO...

Don't forget, that carry in WI is contingent on your OH CHL issued or renewed on/after Mar 23rd 2015!

CO
http://www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov/getattachment/788212ab-70a8-4597-b3da-b03b9b66cbe2/Colorado-Concealed-Carry-Reciprocity-Agreement.aspx

WI
http://www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov/getattachment/4a2adf5a-83df-4a3c-93d7-9797e908e492/Wisconsin-Concealed-Carry-Reciprocity-Agreement.aspx
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update 2015 03 27:

I still haven't seen documentation of the actual reciprocity agreement w/ WI and TX, yet, on the OH AG's website...

HOWEVER, it appears that WI is listing, on it's CC website, that it is honoring OH CHLs, but WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITION:

...due to the circumstances for how WI's CC law was written, and how we are only until now changing our background checks to comply, they will only honor OH CHLs ISSUED OR RENEWED ON/AFTER 2015 03 23... So, be very attentive about this if you want to carry in WI, ...many of us won't be able to carry in WI until we get our current CHL renewed....


http://www.doj.state.wi.us/dles/cib/conceal-carry/reciprocity

Also, thanks to woozman and tweiss3 for pointing out, earlier, that OH AG Dewine signed reciprocity agreements w/ additional states following HB234 officially taking affect on Mar 23rd!\
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

....Reciprocity map for Ohio CHL holders has been updated on the Handgunlaw site!   ..The abolishment of the old "automatic weapon/mag law" also takes effect!

Also, OH will now recognize out-of-staters carrying on an IN or PA CHL, ...but, don't forget that Ohio CHL'ers are still not recognized by PA...

Anyone have any info on when GA began honoring OH?  Guess I can let my NH non-resident permit expire if that is accurate.

From the attorney general's website http://www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov/Media/News-Releases/March-2015/Attorney-General-DeWine-Announces-Concealed-Carry:

"Additionally, House Bill 234 provides that a concealed carry permit issued by another state is valid in Ohio so long as the permit holder is not an Ohio resident and is in the state temporarily. This change allowed Attorney General DeWine to confirm similar reciprocity privileges for Ohio citizens with Colorado, Georgia, New Hampshire, and Wisconsin.

I am a resident of Ohio with a Florida non-resident license.  It is starting to look like my license might have been nuked by this legislation.

I believe that you are GTG:

Sec.109.69.(B)(1)
If, on or after the effective date of this amendment, a person who is a resident of this state has a valid
concealed handgun license that was issued by another license-issuing state that has entered into a reciprocity
agreement with the attorney general under division (A)(1) of this section or the attorney general determines
that the eligibility requirements imposed by that license-issuing state for that license are substantially
comparable to the eligibility requirements for a concealed handgun license issued under section 2923.125 of
the Revised Code, the license issued by the other license-issuing state shall be recognized in this state, shall
be accepted and valid in this state, and grants the person the same right to carry a concealed handgun in this
state as a person who was issued a concealed handgun license under section 2923.125 of the Revised Code.


Gentlemen, please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

I'm sure its changed by now, but 15 year's ago when I was stationed in Texas, their law read something to the efffect of "it is unlawful to carry a concealed handgun without a permit unless 1... 2... 3 While travelling". And somewhere the definition of travelling read "outside ones county of residence". I even had a conversation about it on the side of the road with a TSP officer.  He confirmed I was GTG.  Again, that was nearly a lifetime ago...

They need to update the damn map to include the new states.  I keep one of these in my wallet at all times for just in case, and I'd like to replace it with the new version.

Not at all. It's the only way to ensure the CHL complies with their standards.

OH's requirements were more stringent prior to 3/23/15.  Correct?

No it is about the background check that we used to run, it didn't tie into national databases, now it does.

Yep, CHL applications are now run through NICS. Hopefully this leads to the ability to present one's CHL for instant approval on form 4473

That quick trip is only about an hour (one way) and they are only open during business hours.  Which is my normal work time, so I have to miss work to make it.  Not so easy sometimes.  It was nice when a simple form was accepted and took about 7 day turn around.  But this should be fixed, we need to work on it.

Several counties require references from their county, applicants only from adjacent counties or have a permit from said county already.  I live 12.5 miles from the state line and it was still a PITA.  But i did it, the got my $20

OH and PA do not have reciprocity.  An OH resident has to go to PA and get an out of state permit.  It isn't that big of a deal except for the drive and the time.  Reciprocity would be better.
