Unless you live in a commie state, guns aren't registered.Is there a easy to do Serial # check site online other then going to a Gun Store ? I have some handguns that belonged to my dad , and I want to see if they are registered to him or not .
THANKS
Not one that matters. Statue of limitations is two years I believe; trust but verify.If he bought them befor Oregons BGC law they arent registered to anyone.
There isnt a way to check registration (that i know of...), you can call the OSP to check if any are stolen but they will ask for the address which registers them.
Yes, there is a registry...
Feds trace guns regularly....Not one that matters. Statue of limitations is two years I believe; trust but verify.
Unless I'm missing something, the feds don't prosecute state crimes (not that I'm advocating breaking the law).Feds trace guns regularly....
Im not certain if they type of registry matters?.Unless I'm missing something, the feds don't prosecute state crimes (not that I'm advocating breaking the law).
Well yeah. But I'm not sure if it matters in OPs case.Im not certain if they type of registry matters?.
Leave your gun downtown, and youll get a knock on the door soon enough....

When I have called the OSP line to check a gun's SN against the stolen records database, their question is do you have the gun in your possession, and what address you are at. In the event the gun comes up stolen in the database, they send an OSP officer out to retrieve it. For clarification, is this maybe what you were meaning by the OSP asking for the address which registers them?If he bought them befor Oregons BGC law they arent registered to anyone.

yes, thats what I meant. Honestly dont know if they register that information but I dont trust they shred it after the call ends. (I do understand the need to retrieve a gun should it turn up on the stolen list).When I have called the OSP line to check a gun's SN against the stolen records database, their question is do you have the gun in your possession, and what address you are at.

Thanks, not trying to step on anyone's toes (and I'm not implying you reacted as such). Just wanting the OP to have clear information about what I understand the process is, if they choose to contact the OSP with the SNs of the firearms received from their father.yes, thats what I meant. Honestly dont know if they register that information but I dont trust they shred it after the call ends. (I do understand the need to retrieve a gun should it turn up on the stolen list).
no worries and agree with you, its the right thing to do if the history is unknown or wanting to sell it.Thanks, not trying to step on anyone's toes (and I'm not implying you reacted as such).
Not sure if this is what you meant, but in 2016 Kate Brown issued executive order 16-12 which directed the OSP to retain firearms transaction records for 5 years. Prior to that time, records were only kept for 6 months (officially).Not one that matters. Statue of limitations is two years I believe; trust but verify.
No, I was referring how far back they can go to prosecute you if you were to not use a BGC, (don't break the law by the way).Not sure if this is what you meant, but in 2016 Kate Brown issued executive order 16-12 which directed the OSP to retain firearms transaction records for 5 years.
