Purchasing a gun in Ohio

I have a question for you all. I recently turned in a 4473 at the local gander mountain to purchase a used S&W MP .40. I got delayed by NICS so I have a few questions based on your experience. The wife and I both moved to ohio as of 3 weeks ago. Is there a certain period of time that I must live in Ohio to be able to purchase a gun. I have an ohio drivers liscence. I spoke with the person at the counter and that all that was required was a drivers liscence from ohio. I spoke to a different person at another gun shop that said I must live in the state for 6 months. I looked all over the ORC and the U.S.C and neither have anything to say on this except that legal aliens must live at the same address for 90 days. I would greatly appreciate your advice. Thanks
