What would be the point of carrying if you did not have one in the chamber.

LOL! Ask the Gi's in the sand box, that is the new rule of engagement, chamber must be empty. Talk about allowing our Military Men to be killed with these stupip f'n rules!
I don't have a link to the actual laws right now, but in WA you cannot carry a loaded rifle or shotgun in a vehicle. That means a round in the chamber or in a magazine insterted in the firearm. In Oregon, either are allowed. Aw heck. I am gonna look up the law now.
In WA:
RCW 77.15.460
Loaded firearm in vehicle Unlawful use or possession Penalty.
(1) A person is guilty of unlawful possession of a loaded firearm in a motor vehicle if:
(a) The person carries, transports, conveys, possesses, or controls a rifle or shotgun in or on a motor vehicle; and
(b) The rifle or shotgun contains shells or cartridges in the magazine or chamber, or is a muzzle-loading firearm that is loaded and capped or primed.
(2) A person is guilty of unlawful use of a loaded firearm if the person negligently shoots a firearm from, across, or along the maintained portion of a public highway.
(3) Unlawful possession of a loaded firearm in a motor vehicle or unlawful use of a loaded firearm is a misdemeanor.
(4) This section does not apply if the person:
(a) Is a law enforcement officer who is authorized to carry a firearm and is on duty within the officer's respective jurisdiction;
(b) Possesses a disabled hunter's permit as provided by RCW 77.32.237 and complies with all rules of the department concerning hunting by persons with disabilities.
(5) For purposes of this section, a firearm shall not be considered loaded if the detachable clip or magazine is not inserted in or attached to the firearm.
In Oregon: Ok, I got tired of looking for it. I bore easily I guess. Maybe someone can help me out with the aplicable Oregon law.

now if someone can post the OR cite or at least the area in the statutes to start looking. Sounds like I can carry the long gun (KelTec SU-16C) with the loaded mags out of the well with no trouble.
a friend of mine seems to believe that if you are caught with a bullet chambered while carrying, you can be charged.
If someone has a concealed permit may they carry with a loaded round? ( as long as they arent in prohibited areas i.e courts, schools, etc)
thanks guys
