they got some kind of second chance program in ohio.if the felony isn't drug or violence related they can be sealed. I did have 1 but someone got busted for aggrivated burglary and used my social security card for ID so I got stuck with the charge. the charge was dropped against the person but I got it sealed anyway. I had all of this taken care of in the last 3 months got CCW training and bought 5 firearms. It been 6 weeks since my application was turned in and haven't heard anything about my CCW yet. I'm rushing to enjoy to the fullest extent my 2A right I screwed myself out of 20 years ago before obama screws me out of it again. It's almost like I get a toy taken from me because I was a bad boy.just when mom gives it back daddy obama comes along and kicks it out of my hand and smashes it against the wall making sure I can't play with it anymore.
