Which of the following firearms is NOT permitted to be carried concealed with an Ohio CHL?

  1. Semi-automatic pistol

  2. Revolver

  3. Automatic rifle

  4. Derringer

The correct answer is: Automatic rifle

In Ohio, residents with a Concealed Handgun License (CHL) are allowed to carry certain firearms hidden on their person in public. While both semi-automatic pistols and revolvers are permitted, automatic rifles and derringers are not. This is because automatic rifles, also known as machine guns, are classified as Class III weapons under federal law and require a special license to own. Derringers, on the other hand, are considered concealable weapons by the Ohio Revised Code and therefore cannot be carried with a CHL.
