AI Summary

This bill modifies the scope of where firearms are unlawfully carried in Oklahoma, specifically impacting government buildings that conduct business with the public. Previously, carrying firearms into such buildings was generally prohibited, but this bill creates an exception: if a peace officer and a metal detector are present at a security checkpoint, firearms may be carried into these government buildings, provided that secure storage is available outside the building and clear signage is posted prohibiting firearms inside. The bill also clarifies rules regarding firearms on school property, in courthouses, and on other public and private properties, and sets an effective date of November 1, 2026.
