Too many 114 threads! :)

So the SOS is telling the OSP it will go into effect 30 days after the election, not 30 days after the election is certified, which according to my reading is how it's supposed to be done with ballot measures. That's just great.

The Oregon State Police (OSP) is aware that the public has many questions regarding Ballot Measure 114. The Oregon Secretary of State's office notified OSP that Ballot Measure 114 will go into effect at 12:00 a.m. on December 8, 2022. The Oregon State Police is working very closely with the Department of Justice, the Oregon State Sheriffs' Association and the Oregon Association Chiefs of Police to assess the required processes that need to be completed to implement this law.
For the month of November 2022, approximately 63% of the requests received into the OSP Firearms Instant Check System (FICS) unit have been approved. The remaining transactions must be evaluated by an OSP employee to determine what caused the person to be kicked out of the automated process. If applicable a manual correction can be made, and the application can be approved.
Here are some important notes to consider when submitting for a Firearms purchase or transfer that could exclude you from the automated process:
  • If you have ever been arrested or convicted of a crime in Oregon or any other state.
  • If you have incomplete or incorrect information listed on federal ATF Form 4473
    • Potential Fix- Double-check the information for accuracy.
  • If your registered DMV address does not match the address listed on federal ATF Form 4473
    • Potential Fix- Update your personal address with DMV.
This unit has been working through these extreme firearms request volumes and will continue to process them as quickly as possible.
The FICS unit's hours of operation is set in Oregon Revised Statute (ORS), and largely determined by retail hours. FICS is open and processing background checks from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven days a week 363 days a year with only Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day off.

Called the governors office and left a message, implore the rest of you to do the same.

Oregon Governor Phone: 503-378-4582

they can't just turn off gun sales until the process is in place...
 
How does it go into effect when they do not have everything in place?
If you're a first time gun buyer, how can they make you get a permit to buy a gun, but to get the permit you need a gun (live fire proficiency test)??
- Are Sheriff's going to supply guns for applicants to use??
- Only offer the live fire certification at gun ranges that offer rental guns??
