Why do I need an SDA permit if Oklahoma has constitutional carry?
While Oklahoma does have constitutional carry, an SDA (Self-Defense Act) license allows you to carry in more places where permit-less carry may be restricted. It also makes it easier to travel with your firearm to other states that recognize Oklahoma’s SDA license through reciprocity. In some cases, having a permit can help streamline firearm purchases and reduce potential delays. Lastly, the SDA course provides valuable education on Oklahoma use-of-force laws, de-escalation, and the responsibilities that come with owning and carrying a firearm.
Does this class meet all the requirements for the Oklahoma SDA?
The Oklahoma SDA requires two sections: an 8-hour classroom learning and live-fire training. The class goes over laws and use of deadly force, handgun use and safety, non-violent dispute resolutions, and safe storage. This class is compliant with Oklahoma state code 21 § 1290.14 outlining class requirements.
With Constitutional Carry in effect, am I able to get a license to carry a gun in Oklahoma?
Yes, you can still go through the process to obtain a license after Nov. 1. Oklahoma has reciprocal agreements with other states that recognize Oklahoma’s permit in their state. If you choose to not get a permit in Oklahoma and you travel to a state that requires a permit to carry open or concealed, then you are subject to the laws of that state.
