If you mean fully automatic (that is, a machine gun) Ohio law DOES permit private ownership. However, the machine gun must have been registered with the Federal BATFE. If you mean semi-automatic, there are no state laws that forbid it.

All NFA firearms (Short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, Machineguns, AOWs, suppressors) are legal in Ohio through the usual federal tax stamp/background check process and filing a form.
