Before you go

Rules differ by state and by venue. Read the Ohio gun laws for purchase and transport requirements, find a local Ohio FFL dealer, or see how an FFL transfer in Ohio works if you buy something at a show that has to ship.

Buying a gun from out of state in Ohio?

A firearm bought from an out-of-state dealer, an online seller or a private seller in another state generally has to be shipped to a licensed FFL dealer in Ohio, who runs the background check and charges a transfer fee. Fees and hours vary by shop.
