Which of these firearms is prohibited from being carried concealed in Ohio?

  1. Automatic firearms

  2. Handguns with a capacity of more than 15 rounds

  3. Any legally owned handgun

  4. Firearms with a silencer

The correct answer is: Automatic firearms

In Ohio, it is prohibited to carry automatic firearms in a concealed manner. This is because automatic firearms are classified as Class III weapons, which require special permits and are heavily regulated by the National Firearms Act. Handguns with a capacity of more than 15 rounds and firearms with a silencer are also restricted from being carried concealed, but there are certain exceptions for legally owned handguns. This means that while a legally owned handgun may be carried concealed in Ohio, it must still comply with the state's capacity limit and can not have a silencer attached. These restrictions are in place to ensure the safety and proper handling of firearms in public spaces.
