The Attorney General does not issue handgun licenses in Oklahoma. C. Local Police Departments do not have the authority to issue handgun licenses in the state. D. While County Sheriff's Offices play a role in the application process and background checks, the ultimate authority for issuing handgun licenses lies with the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.
