New Hampshire concealed permit

[u/TsCGreen]

Im 18 just built my first handgun legally. If I get a conceal permit from New Hampshire. Am I legally allowed to carry it concealed. I know this has been answered on here I just want people with experience of carrying under 21 with the permit. I know Ohio allows out of residence permits. But I haven’t any clear laws of carrying under 21 with a permit. Reason I’m wandering is because I work a lot in downtown areas and just want extra safety with me

No. You can only carry concealed when 21 years old and up

[u/TsCGreen → u/bradsredditacct]

Even with New Hampshire permit. Not arguing just where does it say that in Ohio laws

[u/bradsredditacct → u/TsCGreen]

Yes. You have to be 21.

[u/vadillovzopeshilov → u/TsCGreen]

I’d think in-state laws supersede out of-state laws. In OH it’s 21, meaning within state jurisdiction it’s 21. Not a lawyer, don’t even play one on TV, but that’s just a logical inference based on life.

What “in state” law says you have to be 21 to conceal carry with a recognized permit? Since their is no mention of age in the reciprocity law.

I did say I’m not a lawyer, did I not?

This link says 18 with permit from New Hampshire

I wasn’t trying to argue over this lol just trying to see if you were looking at it wrong or if I was. Just trying to get opinions cause I’m not trying to get caught up with the law

[u/bradsredditacct → u/TsCGreen]

Actually I take it back lol. It says you have to be 21. Ohio recognizes the permitless carry and and permitted carry reciprocity but you have to be 21.

Where does it say this at

Ohio Concealed Carry Reciprocity With Other States

Which states’ permits does Ohio honor?

New Hampshire (permitless carry, at least 21 years old)

[u/TsCGreen → u/bradsredditacct]

I’m pretty sure that’s Ohio conceal permit. Cause if go to other states reciprocity with Ohio it says New Hampshire 18

I don't believe you can carry under 21, even with the NH permit.

Develop situational awareness, and carry OC spray.

[u/Conscious-Shift8855]

As you already know you can conceal carry with your NH carry license. As you can probably tell from the other responses no one else seems to be able to wrap their head around that idea.

When it comes to laws you have to follow they are basically the same laws as those that are licensed to conceal carry. There are no special laws just for those 18-21. You are lawfully allowed to conceal carry and any laws that would restrict any other lawful carrier would also apply to you.

USCCAs link is a bit confusing, I would strongly suggest contacting a lawyer to be 100% sure.

According to USCCA’s website, “Since open carry is not addressed in state statutes, the Federal minimum age for possession of a handgun of 18 years old applies.” You can’t buy a pistol from a gun store under 21, but being gifted it or similar I believe is allowed.

THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE AND DO AS YOU SEE FIT, but I personally would rather be able to defend myself in the hopes I never need to than wishing I had a way to defend myself or others in the event of something bad
