Oklahoma permits open carry of handguns by eligible adults under constitutional carry and the Self-Defense Act, subject to location restrictions and private property rights.
Open carry of handguns is lawful in Oklahoma for adults 21 or older (18 for military) who are not federally prohibited from possessing firearms. Holsters must be visible if openly carried, and rifles or shotguns may be transported under separate provisions. Private property owners may prohibit firearms by posting notice. Schools, government buildings, sports arenas, and establishments primarily serving alcohol remain off-limits. Local jurisdictions cannot create more restrictive open-carry rules due to firearm preemption under 21 O.S. 1289.24.
Open carry by ineligible persons, in prohibited locations, or in violation of posted private property notices may constitute trespass or criminal carry offenses.
