So I've never really thought about the open carry laws in Ohio, because I've had my CCW for 6 years now, but was curious what peoples thoughts on the CCW vs. Open Carry are and just some details. I know that Ohio does have open carry, but I've never really read up on what that truly means, for instance in a car, driving, riding, etc. My fiance's dad has argued with me that he prefers to open carry vs. CCW due to what happens if someone with a CCW is caught in a no carry zone etc. and the charges that would be filed. He is pretty pro-gun, had his own shooting range, reloading, etc at his house, and is pretty pro-NRA as well. I don't know if his argument is valid or not, and never really looked into anything like that. Anyways, I was wondering what exactly the open carry statues are for a car, store, walking around in public etc. Basically just becasue I've never worried about it, but my dad hasn't gotten his CCW yet, and quite frankly Mansfield is getting worse and worse. They live in the country but travel through town to go various places. I know many of you are very knowledgable about this kind of stuff so I would prefer facts vs. opinions if possible. Thanks.
