[QUOTE="ls1z4me, post: 1255559, member: 5863"] TITLE 21 § 1290.6. [B]Prohibited ammunition[/B] PROHIBITED AMMUNITION Any concealed handgun when carried in a manner authorized by the provisions of the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act, Sections 1 through 26 of this act, when loaded with any ammunition which is either a restricted bullet as defined by Section 1289.19 of Title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes or is larger than [B].45 caliber[/B] or is otherwise prohibited by law shall be deemed a prohibited weapon for purposes of the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act. Any person violating the provisions of this section shall be punished for a criminal offense as provided by Section 1272 of title 21 of the Oklahoma Statutes or any other applicable provision of law. In addition to any criminal prosecution for a violation of the provisions of this section, the licensee shall be subject to an administrative fine of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00), upon a hearing and determination by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation that the person is in violation of the provisions of this section. Webster defines caliber as: 1 a : degree of mental capacity or moral quality b : degree of excellence or importance [B]2 a : the diameter of a bullet or other projectile[/B] b : the diameter of a bore of a gun usually expressed in hundredths or thousandths of an inch and typically written as a decimal fraction <.32 caliber> 3 : the diameter of a round or cylindrical body; especially : the internal diameter of a hollow cylinder My earlier comment shows that like most laws, its up to how someone interprets the law. One could argue that under the "prohibited ammunition" section, witch deals with the bullet types and sizes, it states that bullet caliber (the diameter of a bullet or other projectile) is not to exceed .45 As Bill "slick Willy" Clinton said "It depends on what the meaning of the words 'is' is." Perhaps the law makers just rounded down from 3 decimal places. If a .452 is ok perhaps a .454" is ok too? I would hope that anyone defending themselves with a .45 ACP, under the OK SDA law, would not have defend their use of a bullet with a normal diameter of .452" just because the law left a little up to interpretation.
