No FOID in Ohio.

I'm not sure about under 18 ownership.

Only loop hole, it can be given as a gift from someone over 18 or 21 depending on the weapon.

Persons under 18 may not buy a rifle in Ohio.  Since any out of state transfer has to go thru a FFL (dealer) I doubt you'll find one who'll do a transfer.

What's your real question here?  You're in IL and the question apples to OH.

transfer it to their parent/guardian, then they give the rifle to them (minor) as a gift.
