    Oregon  Would FFL License Negate Restrictions in IP43 REDUX?

    Would FFL dealers be unburdened from most of restrictions that were proposed in IP43? Which restrictions would they have still been subject too? For example could FFL holders in Oregon still purchase firearms banned by IP43 and use them for personal use? Are the feds cracking down on kitchen...

    Oregon  Downside of IP43 not making it on ballot

    Don't get me wrong, I am a happy camper that IP43 is dead. But one downside might be that with IP43 missing from the ballot, it could temper voter turn out. I suppose it could affect turn out on both sides. Does anybody else share this concern? How can we replace that motivation to vote for the...

    Are Oregon Gun Shops Disappointed Over IP43 Death?

    I think it is pretty well recognized that near term threats of anti-gun laws are a big boon for guns and ammo sales. I am guessing that is why we didn't get much support from LGSs in the fight to defeat IP43. I would like to recognize Tick Licker Firearms in Salem for being a lone voice among...

    Oregon  IP 43 Dead, Dead, Dead

    The Supreme Court sent it back to the AG to correct the misleading caption (Assault Weapon language). Even if they did that today, we have 10 days to appeal (which has to pass before it can move forward). We win, game over (for now). Formal post from OOC coming...

    Oregon  Appeals Against IP43 Ballot Title to the Oregon Supreme Court

    If you filed a comment on the proposed ballot title for IP43 a few days ago, you now have standing to appeal the revised ballot title to the Oregon Supreme Court. I'm told that this will further delay signature gathering until the Oregon Supreme Court can deal with the appeals. The form for...

    Oregon  IP43 - Crimes committed by IP43 sponsors? and other IP43 thoughts

    I think there may be a crime or ethics violation due to: 1 – Extreme leftist Ellen Rosenblum being involved in the ballot title process. 2 – Using the words “assault weapon” in the suggested ballot title; clearly a blatant lie to deceive voters. 3 – Tax exempt religious organizations involved...
