Really? You can come to the capital city unless you are packing?
Where did you get that idea? There's nothing in the new law that prohibits or restricts carrying, unless the firearm you carry has a magazine capacity of 30 or greater rounds. I personally don't know anyone that carries with a mag that size. I do believe the mag capacity section of the law will be declared unconstitutional and stricken from the new law before it goes into effect. If not, I'll then decide what to do about my hi-cap mags, but not until then. As to the rest of the law, I expect it will stand. Yes, I live in Columbus and I carry.

Will do, gladly. Once I’m done working I will never go to Columbus again. Meanwhile I will carry. I came very close to shooting a guy in the face when he and his buddies tried to get into my truck while I was stopped at a red light. He re-evaluated his life decisions very quickly once he realized that I wasn’t going to go easily. I can’t wait for the day that I never have to go to Columbus again. I’m just trying to go to work, make a living, and go home again. I don’t need or want the problems that I encounter in Columbus.
What do you carry that has a 30 rd clip on your commute that is also easy maneuverable and effective in a car jacking scenario that you cant carry now?

Is it feasible to replace a spring follower with a taller one, or add a plug at the bottom , only to allow 29 in the mag never really looked at how the mags are put together ......
I believe the state law is any mag holding more then 30rds is considered full auto and needs a class 3 license except for 22 ammo
The liberal dumbocrats in the city do suck & plenty of them

The (Ohio) legal definition of an automatic firearm ORC 2923.11 (E) was changed in 2015. The second sentence, about magazine capicity over 30 rounds, was dropped. As of 23Mar2015, it became legal in Ohio to use magazines of greater than 30 round capacity without an automatic weapons tax stamp.

Most (all that I've ever come across) magazines are made where the bottom of the mag can be removed (some easier than others) to allow access to the spring and follower. I'm not a lawyer but the way I read the new C-bus law is the magazine cannot be readily converted to hold 30 or more rounds. To me, this means a plug, which could be easily removed, would not render a larger mag legal. A more permanent modification is required. I read that a C-bus gun store, LEPD, was converting mags by installing a larger follower but, IMO that could be easily replaced with the original which would mean that also wouldn't work. I've recently heard them advertise they will store larger magazines for customers until such time as the new law is overturned. So maybe they have come to the same conclusion I have?

The new C-bus large magazine ban doesn't go into effect until July 1st. So I've got until then to modify or remove my larger mags from the city, and I anticipate the law will be overturned. Hopefully before then.

I heard on the radio a few weeks back that LEPD in central Ohio on Bethel road will modify 30 rounders to only hold 29 for free for anyone that brings them in. Texted a friend to see if I heard that right and he said he heard them same thing. He and I have both bought a couple firearms from them. Just throwing it out there for anyone that’s actually concerned.
Edited: just saw the post above me so disregard mine

I have no connection with them, never bought a gun or anything from them, but they seem like good people. I do use their range and it's fairly nice.

I've thought about this for several days and am still dumbfounded. I carry 3-16 round magazines and 1 in the chamber. 49 rounds almost everywhere, even around the house. I also keep 2-13 magazines in the car. Total 75 rounds. I just don't trust the bad element of our society anymore and want the protection. So what's the difference if I had a couple 30 round clips. I just can't wrap my head around what this ban will stop. Other than infringing on law abiding citizens. What a useless law and hope it's repealed. Support NRA, BFA, OGO.

I imagine this law will do exactly what it is intended to do, rather it's repealed or not, and that is to help get the lame city councilmen and Mayor re-elected by the lame majority contingent of the citizenry of C-bus. I realize this is a family friendly site, so you can substitute whatever demeaning word you wish where I used the word "lame".

Edited to add: I don't consider those whose political views differ from mine to be less than myself in any way and I respect their opinion and their right to have said opinion. I do consider it 'lame' to vote for a bill or a candidate simply because that is ones party line, instead of considering the facts.

30 rounds mags are what those evil black guns use. More back door games.
