Firearms; modifying scope of lawful carry of firearms. Effective date.

SB 446 modifies Oklahoma's firearms carry laws by expanding where concealed or open carry is permitted. It allows concealed carry in government buildings (like city/town halls) and school parking lots (with firearms locked in vehicles when unattended), and permits concealed carry at Oklahoma State Fair and Tulsa State Fair venues if they meet specific security standards (e.g., 8-foot fences, metal detectors, officer-staffed entry points). The bill also removes prohibitions on carrying firearms in certain public parks, recreational areas, and fairgrounds property, while maintaining bans in courthouses, schools (except parking), and facilities providing mental health/substance abuse services. It updates legal references and provides an effective date.
