Ohio reciprocity for PA LTCF?

[soccerdad]

the chart on PAFOA start page doesn't list Ohio as having reciprocity with PA for LTCF. On the Buckeye (Ohio) firearm page it says there IS reciprocity. On the USCCA site same -- says yes. I've always tended to trust info here (to a degree...I'm no noob) anyone want to assure me that if I happen to stray into this weekend I'm not going to get locked up?

Yes Ohio has full reciprocity with PA, be aware that they are a "must inform" state if you get stopped by LEO. And not allowed in drinking establishments, other than that not much different than PA's reg

They do as of March of 2015, I did a lengthy motorcycle ride there last summer, did the research before I went:

There is a lot more than no carry in drinking establishments, You cannot carry in a police station in Ohio, and there are several other places that are legal in Pa. that are not legal in Ohio.

Another thing you will notice on the start page is that it's the last chance to pass the Castle Doctrine. It's not exactly up to date. As others have said there is now reciprocity with Ohio.

You can't carry in church in Ohio either. When I visit Ohio I have a packing vesting for out on the highway and an empty vest for being in town. Too many places that are illegal to carry by statute or by posting.

For the people that think concealed means concealed. DO NOT enter a posted business in Ohio carrying as there signs have the force of law. If you enter a GFZ in Ohio you are breaking the law.

You are breaking the law in PA as well.

I don't see anything in there about no gun policy. I think it has the same effect as No Smoking. I have never heard of anyone being arrested for trespassing for carrying concealed at a movie theater or casino. The state law has been removed, prohibiting legally carrying in casinos. Of course, there are some places where it is illegal to carry, notably Federal buildings, and post office properties.
