does the owner need to be there ?I would only add to cover your bubblegum, that the owner of that handgun is also present. That covers your bubblegum. Otherwise, any aged kid can use a handgun for training and practice at the range.
If the underage person isn't the owner of the gun then yes, the owner of the gun needs to be present at the range during the time the underage person is using the gun.does the owner need to be there ?
Under that revised statute, you can loan a firearm to someone for lawful purpose like hunting or target shooting and it would not be considered a transfer. There is nothing in it that requires the owner be present.If the underage person isn't the owner of the gun then yes, the owner of the gun needs to be present at the range during the time the underage person is using the gun.
ORS 166.435
The way I read it specifically states providing the gun for target shooting/training must happen in person at the range or club. Its the very first exception to the unlicensed transfer law, Section 1AUnder that revised statute, you can loan a firearm to someone for lawful purpose like hunting or target shooting and it would not be considered a transfer. There is nothing in it that requires the owner be present.
the pistol was a hand down , is there a way i become legal owner?If the underage person isn't the owner of the gun then yes, the owner of the gun needs to be present at the range during the time the underage person is using the gun.

If it was given to you by an immediate family member per 166.435, its yours. If not.... have the giver transfer the gun to you at an FFL, you will have to go thru a background check.the pistol was a hand down , is there a way i become legal owner?

If your under 21 and your father gave you the gun its legally yours and you don't need to do anything more per 166.435. To transport it to a range or gun club it must be in the trunk or in a locked container per ORS 166.250 and your free to use it at ranges.was given by my father, with the gun being gifted to me , how do i go about it? just when transporting it keep it locked up and out of site? and im free to use it at ranges? sorry for the question just want to be safer then sorry i appreciate your help.
even through private sales?A catch 22 though is that if you are under 21 you can't buy handgun ammo. I think that's federal.
i saw another point brought up under this thread regarding ammo, legally im not allowed to purchase it, but am i able to purchase through private sales and am i able to carry it with me?If your under 21 and your father gave you the gun its legally yours and you don't need to do anything more per 166.435.

Its best to bring it to the range in a pistol case, don't open it until your at the shooting bench. Ask a range officer for any specific range rules. See if the range has any training classes you might be interested in it will really build some fundamentals that will get you going on the right track with safety and proficiency. Enjoy the gun and its good your asking questions.
Im not aware of any law preventing the private sale of ammo to minors and once you acquire ammo yes your able to carry it with you.i saw another point brought up under this thread regarding ammo, legally im not allowed to purchase it, but am i able to purchase through private sales and am i able to carry it with me?
What you do in private falls under don't ask, don't tell IMHO. I own an ammo company and can't legally sell you ammo.i saw another point brought up under this thread regarding ammo, legally im not allowed to purchase it, but am i able to purchase through private sales and am i able to carry it with me?
unlicensed people for example people selling ammo on this forum would be considered a private sale?What you do in private falls under don't ask, don't tell IMHO. I own an ammo company and can't legally sell you ammo.
