Bill Summary

An Act relating to firearms; amending 21 O.S. 2021, Section 1277, as amended by Section 2, Chapter 251, O.S.L. 2025 (21 O.S. Supp. 2025, Section 1277), which relates to the unlawful carry of firearms; providing exception to certain prohibited act; authorizing certain persons to carry concealed handguns into State Capitol Building; providing construing provision; and providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Oklahoma law regarding the unlawful carry of firearms to create an exception for the State Capitol Building. Specifically, it authorizes individuals who possess a valid handgun license issued under the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act to carry a concealed handgun into the State Capitol Building, provided they present their license when entering through a security checkpoint staffed by a commissioned peace officer. The bill also clarifies that this provision does not permit peace or security officers to unnecessarily inspect handguns or detain individuals carrying them without probable cause of a crime, and it sets an effective date of November 1, 2026.
