Firearms; authorizing the carry of firearms at certain location; effective date.

HB 1476 amends Oklahoma law to allow licensed gun owners to carry concealed or unconcealed firearms in specific locations previously restricted. It permits firearms in school parking lots (with weapons stored locked in vehicles when unattended), government-owned parking areas, certain public parks, and municipal zoos/parks (with concealed carry only). The bill requires private schools to adopt written policies permitting firearms on property and allows school districts to designate licensed security personnel to carry on school grounds. It directly affects licensed gun owners, private school entities, and local governments managing public spaces like parks and parking facilities.
