BREAKING NEWS:
Ohio Concealed Handgun License Approved as Background Check


Buckeye Firearms Association (BFA) is pleased to announced that the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) has certified the Ohio Concealed Handgun License (CHL) as a valid NICS-compliant background check for firearm purchases. Click here to see the letter from the BATFE.


This is the result of more than six years of work by BFA to improve and simplify background checks for Ohio gun owners. Thanks also goes to Attorney General Mike DeWine, who worked with the BATFE to help win this approval.


And it's great news for Ohio CHL holders and law-abiding citizens who frequently get a "hold" when trying to buy a firearm.

Good news for Ohio citizens but another nightmare for Hilldabeast to cry about.
This is very usefull for dealers at gun shows or even flea markets in Ohio.

Not sure how this might affect an Ohioan buying a gun off a dealer in another state like Pennsylvania since Pa checks go thru the Pa. State Police unlike Ohio that goes thru the ATF.

I quit paying attention to the BFA and unsubscribed from their email when they endorsed Strickland for governor despite the massive economic shithole he got us in.

Their excuse was the NRA endorsed him so they would too. What really happened was the NRA caught a lot of heat for it and the BFA was at the time trying to get some BFA members on the NRA Board so the came out and endorsed him too. They tried to spin it but it was obvious. Funny. Trump received the NRAs endorsement last week. Not one word from the BFA on endorsing him. Funny how that works.

As for the original post that's awesome news. No doubt the BFA does some good work although I'm unsure how much they actually led this charge here as I'm not familiar with it. Just can't get past their endorsement of Suckland

Strickland way back claimed to live in an apartment above the dumocrat headquarters in Lisbon when he was a US House Rep. Truth is he had a million dollar condo in Columbus. He had no interest in living in his district.
