Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced today that Ohio has reached concealed-carry reciprocity agreements with Colorado, Georgia, New Hampshire, Texas and Wisconsin. Ohio already had concealed-carry reciprocity with 23 other states.

A step forward for sure. GA was one reason for my not getting one from Ohio.

I was an OTR truck driver for yrs, and I had several times where for one reason or another needed to tell/inform an officer (many different states) that I had a permit/lisc, and was armed, and not ONCE did they ask to see the permit or what state it was from... SO.... I dont worry much about reciprocity. Nice that my home state OH did this though....

If only PA would pass their constitutional carry bills.

Not going to happen. It needs the approval of the PA Attorney General and she is notoriously anti-gun.

Looks like I was wrong about PA.
