The thing about Multmomah county though is they don't enforce any laws at all so it doesn't matter anyway in a risk of consequences sense.Oregon has no law prohibiting the transport of loaded rifles except in Multnomah county where even the magazines must be empty.
For out of state visitors to Oregon there is a federal law that applies to all firearms requiring them to be unloaded and not readily accessible: 18 U.S.C 962A
18 U.S. Code § 926A - Interstate transportation of firearms

Daily there are violent crimes and shootings where nothing is ever done. I remember about a month ago now a guy tracked down his stolen car and called the police for help. They said "there is nothing we can do." He was shot trying to get his car back and went to the hospital with life threatening injuries.
I've called them for man beating naked petite lady, nothing. Man throwing rocks at cars, trying to destroy bus stop with metal pipe, chasing pedestrians with metal pipe, nothing. Woman trying to break into four separate houses and offices, nothing. Man stealing pipes from city construction site, nothing. I don't think having a loaded magazine means anything in multnomah county because the laws are pretty much meaningless now.
