hey all, I've got a question about keeping a gun in the trunk of a car that either has a ski bag or is a station wagon. according to the ORC Chapter 2923.16 C2:
http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2923.16
Is it lawful to transport a firearm in these situations? In the ski bag scenario, it's possible to open the ski bag compartment, detach the ski bag, and attempt to fish out the gun without leaving the vehicle. Similarly in a station wagon, it is possible to open the cover and attempt to grab hold of the gun in this way. Gah, if only my barrel was 2 inches longer, then these silly rules wouldn't apply :banghead:
