Ohio Gun Rights Suspension Causes

These are ways you can lose your right to own or possess a firearm in Ohio:

• If you commit a violent felony.

• If you commit a felony drug offense.

• If you are drug dependent, alcoholic, or in danger of becoming drug dependent.

• If you are determined by a court to be mentally incompetent.

• If you are a fugitive from justice.

• If you are subject to certain restraining orders.

Some additional circumstances set in place by Federal law that result in loss of gun rights include:

• A misdemeanor domestic violence conviction

• A dishonorable discharge from the military

• status as an illegal alien

Restoring Gun Rights

You must do the following if you intend to restore your Constitutional gun rights:

• Complete any sentence ordered,
• 
  
• No longer be on probation, parole, or under court supervision
• 
  
• Have no new convictions since the conviction that led to the loss of your gun rights
• 
  
• Lead a law-abiding life

If these criteria are met, applying for reinstatement for your gun rights is an option. Keep in mind, you will need to convince the court that you pose no threat to the public and deserve to have the right to own and possess a firearm.
