Oklahoma Self-Defense Act

Section 1290.2 - Definitions
Cite as: O.S. §, __ __


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



As used in Sections 1 through 25 of this act:

1. "Concealed handgun" means a loaded or unloaded pistol carried hidden from the detection and view of another person either upon or about the person, in a purse or other container belonging to the person, or in a vehicle which is operated by the person or in which the person is riding as a passenger; and

2. "Pistol" means any derringer, revolver or semiautomatic firearm which:

a. has an overall length of less than sixteen (16) inches and is able to be fully concealed from detection and view,

b. is capable of discharging a projectile composed of any material which may reasonably be expected to be able to cause lethal injury,

c. is designed to be held and fired by the use of a single hand, and

d. uses either gunpowder, gas or any means of rocket propulsion to discharge the projectile. The definition of pistol for purposes of the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act shall not apply to homemade or imitation pistols, flare guns, underwater fishing guns or blank pistols.



The definition of the type of weapon that may be carried is supplied above. To my knowledge, there is not a limit to the number of weapons an individual may carry pursuant to statute, though all must be concealed.

I have a license from Texas I was also wondering if there is a limit on how high of a caliber I can carry? For example can I carry anything larger then a .45



I was also wondering if there was a law that limits the amount of handguns I can carry concealed at one time?

The definition of pistol for purposes of the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act shall not apply to homemade or imitation pistols, flare guns, underwater fishing guns or blank pistols.

So if a top-flight machinist turns out a 1911 in his home workshop, that's not a pistol?

I think they mean zip guns. They could have worded it more clearly.

They may define "homemade" in another section, as Texas does for zip guns.
