Oregon restoration of firearm rights. Felon in Possession of Certain Weapons

[Goonie]

As far as I know in Oregon that if your Oregon record is expunged you are good to go.
Which means that the record is expunged with the feds as well because the Oregon judge will notify the Feds, and OSP and others of the expunged record.

Yes True.

All you can do is follow your avatars advice and "keep on truckn' ".

One individual's experience will play no role in the outcome of your personal fight as different jurisdictions, judges, scope of crime, attorney experience and criminal background will all have some effect on your specific case.

Good on you for doing your time and presumably pulling the cranium from the old browneye. In so doing you have already beaten the odds so keep it up.

Just do it, fight this sombeitch till the cows come home.

The importance of a GREAT attorney cannot be overstated.

 

[Kruel J]

You have consulted an attorney. No advice on the internet could possibly help.

NWFA is not the place to ask for nor give any legal advice on these types of matters. Even asking for discussions or interpretations is inherently dangerous and not what this forum is about.

Thread closed.
