Need some insight/advice please.

[Willysmb]

Hello all.

Dear Abby-

I have a buddy that will be starting the divorce process soon.

He has asked me about storing his firearms at my place while the divorce runs its course.

Firearms would be in his safe and I would NOT have/want the combination.

I will be explaining the finer points of community property to him (ask me how I know).

Looking to the group for the pluses and minuses of storing his firearms for him in the current/near future environment.

All advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards.

No $$$ for actual legal advice? This is just the internet for Pete's sake.

That's some thing you don't talk about in this current environment!
If you want to do it for him, Do it. If not Don't. But that's Definitly NOT a question you should post on the internet

I say 'do it' but first get a moderator to delete this topic

Just do and STFU

Act like a citizen instead of a subject

 

[Hooyah DeepSea]

Unfortunately, due to SB554, what you are talking about is illegal. To move his safe / his firearms to your place constitutes a"transfer". The reasoning does not matter. That is why many of us tried to fight that bill. So, unless you do a proper transfer, with BGC's and all. it is not allowed. That is the legal side of things.
On the other hand, if the firearms were temporarily lost due to a boating accident . . .

Besides the concerns about transfer legality, this could also be considered hiding assets by your friend. If that is uncovered during the divorce proceedings, it could cause a whole host of problems for him regardless of whether the property is a firearm or not.

At the very least, tell him to rent a storage unit for them and keep you out of it.

This is one of those times where "no good deed goes unpunished" applies

Oregon is not a community property state. Unless you are a lawyer, don't get involved.

 

[crossbow5]

Remind your friend about the "Red Flag Law" that we have here in Oregon. His soon to be ex might start something.

 

[Erick]

If divorce proceedings have not been formally initiated, then he can offload the firearms without issue (besides the storage/transfer questions). If they have been started by either party then he'll take a hit for it

What's the number 1 cause of divorce?

What's the number 1 cause of divorce?

Marriage...

 

[Pepe-lepew]

If you don't have access to them than there is no transfer and it would meet the requirements of SB554. Would be no different than locked in a storage unit. A lot of firearms were stored other places following the fires we had a few years ago.

The firearm ownership as part of the divorce is his business not yours. You don't have access to them anyway.

I would have him find a legal spot to store them.
