Representative Cheryl Grossman (R Ohio) is putting this bill in now. She has been hard at work putting together a bill to change the hunting law in Ohio to allow suppressors. In her research she came across what Georgia had done. The following is an excert from the bill that was passed in Georgia. She is planning to use it as a template for Oho's bill. Any firearm otherwise 55 authorized for use in the hunting or taking of game may be equipped with a suppressor, 56 provided that the user is authorized to possess such suppressor and he or she has 57 registered the suppressor in accordance with the dictates of the National Firearms Act, 58 68A Stat. 725 (26 U.S.C. Sections 5841-5862). For the purposes of this paragraph, the 59 term 'suppressor' means any device for quieting or diminishing the report of any portable 60 weapon such as a rifle, carbine, pistol, revolver, machine gun, shotgun, fowling piece, or 61 other device from which a shot, bullet, or projectile may be discharged by an explosive. 62 (b) The hunting privileges of any person who has been convicted of violating the 63 provisions of this title or any rule or regulation promulgated pursuant thereto by hunting 13 LC 28 6490 S. B. 93 - 3 - 64 without landowner permission, hunting in an area that is closed for hunting, or by hunting 65 big game out of season or at night with a firearm equipped with a suppressor shall be 66 suspended for three years."
