I had a couple questions about handguns in the state of ohio. I know i should call the Sheriff but he's hard to get ahold of in my county.
But if i purchase a handgun form a private seller do i have to register that handgun. THe gun was bought by him and registered by him bc he bought it from a commerical dealer. I heard as long as its a provate seller you dont have to.
Also Where i live is right on the OHIO WV boarder and there's a nice public range in wv. Do i have to notify anyone before taking my gun over there or can i transferit as long as its locked up and in plain sight and not loaded?

You should register it just in case it gets stolen and used in a crime. The person who sold it to you most likely has your name and address. carrying a weapon in a vehicle is okay as long as the ammo and the gun are in seperate areas of the vehicle. I would carry the gun in the trunk and the ammo in the glove compartment. Cops get real nervous when they pull you over and see a gun. This is how it was explained to me by the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
