Oklahoma Concealed carry???

[MacFromOK]

If you have an Oklahoma driver license, proof of residency shouldn't be a problem.

Welcome to OK!

Be aware that you may not carry in an establishment that serves alcohol, (most restaurants) without an SDA License. For me, and so I can travel to other states that recognize Oklahoma's license, that's a good enough reason to get it

Also, if you are carrying (open or concealed) without an SDA license and get stopped for a traffic infraction, they will tack on an additional $75 charge.

Residents and non-residents are free to carry openly or concealed here in Oklahoma, as long as you follow the rules regarding where you can carry (federal buildings, schools, etc). I'd still recommend getting your permit for reciprocity's sake, but from what you've written it sounds like you're good to go. Have fun, stay safe, welcome to the best state in the nation.

 

[AKguy1985]

Don't you have to reside in Oklahoma for 90 days to be considered a resident? I may be wrong.

Also, if you are carrying (open or concealed) without an SDA license and get stopped for a traffic infraction, they will tack on an additional $75 charge.

Are you sure about that? Where is that stated in the SDA?

Also, if you are carrying (open or concealed) without an SDA license and get stopped for a traffic infraction, they will tack on an additional $75 charge.

I'm gonna call BS on this one...

This is probably what he is talking about:

TITLE 21 § 1289.13A IMPROPER TRANSPORTATION OF FIREARM
A. Notwithstanding the provisions of 1272 or 1289.7 of this title, any person stopped pursuant to a moving traffic violation who is transporting a loaded pistol in the motor vehicle without a valid handgun license authorized by the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act or valid license from another state, or in violation of any law related to the carrying or transporting of firearms, whether the loaded firearm is concealed or unconcealed in the vehicle, may be issued a traffic citation in the amount of Seventy Dollars ($70.00), plus court costs for transporting a firearm improperly. In addition to the traffic citation provided in this section, the person may also be arrested for any other violation of law.


I admit it is kind of confusing.

 

[kwaynem]

I’m not understanding this either

 

[MacFromOK]

I'm thinking the new Constitutional Carry law should nullify this, because you're no longer "transporting a firearm improperly."

Just my 2¢ ... NOT a lawyer.
