SB 416 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Oklahoma Self-Defense Act; modifying scope of certain unlawful act related to prohibited ammunition. Effective date.

SB 416 modifies Oklahoma's Self-Defense Act to clarify that carrying a handgun (concealed or unconcealed) under this law with certain ammunition becomes a prohibited weapon. It specifically prohibits ammunition that is larger than .45 caliber, restricted bullets (as defined elsewhere in law), or any other ammunition already banned by law. This change directly affects individuals exercising their right to carry under Oklahoma's self-defense provisions. The bill updates the legal definition of prohibited ammunition within the Self-Defense Act without altering core self-defense rights. Violations would be punishable under existing criminal statutes.
