Oklahoma generally has no laws requiring the disarming of people who have become prohibited from possessing firearms. Oklahoma does require law enforcement to remove any weapon or instrument – including a firearm – when an officer has probable cause to believe the weapon or instrument has been used to commit an act of domestic abuse, but only if the perpetrator is simultaneously arrested.¹
