What is a PAC?
According to the Ohio Revised Code, a Political Action Committee (PAC) is a combination of two or more persons, the primary or incidental purpose of which is to influence the result of any election.

Why was Buckeye Firearms Association formed?
Buckeye Firearms Association is a grassroots political action committee dedicated to defending and advancing the rights of Ohio citizens to own and use firearms for all legal activities, including self-defense, hunting, competition, and recreation.

How does BFA benefit pro-gun Ohioans?
Buckeye Firearms Association seeks to maximize your rights by endorsing and electing pro-gun candidates on the city, county, and state level, including mayors, sheriffs, legislators, and governor. We also work to defeat anti-gun legislation, pass pro-gun bills, and reform existing laws to benefit all Ohio citizens.

How is BFA different from other groups?
Unlike many anti-gun groups, we do not get our funding or support from wealthy activists or big corporations. And unlike many pro-gun groups we focus our efforts exclusively on the state of Ohio.

We are a non-partisan, all-volunteer organization. Officers and supporters donate their time and skills to the pro-gun cause. Not a single dime from donors is spent on salaries or wasteful overhead. In fact, every penny is used to support political campaigns, influence public opinion, and advance gun rights around Ohio.

How can I help?
Buckeye Firearms Association needs your financial assistance! Like it or not, well-funded campaigns are a political necessity these days, even at the state level. Please consider donating now! In addition to financial support, we need volunteers to put up yard signs, inform friends, and help get out the vote!

How does PAC money get used?
The people at Buckeye Firearms Association are 100% volunteers. The money donated to this organization will be used, 100%, to achieve our shared goal of electing pro-gun candidates who will enact pro-gun legislation designed to restore and protect our Constitutional right to bear arms and the human right to self-defense.

But don't take our word for it. Buckeye Firearms Association commits to provide full disclosure, via this website and via direct links to the Ohio Secretary of State Campaign Finance website, on every last penny that comes in, and that goes out. By doing so, we believe that you'll not only be more comfortable in the decision-making and money-management of Buckeye Firearms Association, but that you'll be more comfortable with increasing the size of your donations, knowing that they are being utilized to their fullest potential on your behalf.

Can I obtain a Concealed Handgun License in Ohio now?
Yes. Sheriff's offices began taking applications for concealed handgun licenses (CHL's) on April 8, 2004. Currently, Ohio's license allows you to carry a concealed handgun in Ohio and 24 other states.

Where can I find answers to questions about Ohio's concealed carry law?
Please visit the Ohio Attorney General's website for answers to many commonly-asked questions about Ohio's concealed carry law.

We're fighting to make Ohio a better place to live for today and tomorrow. Please help us fight the good fight for our rights. We can't do it without your support.
