Oregon Storing firearms in a relatives house

[StaticTorque]

I'm wondering what the law is for storing my safe and firearms at my grandmas house. I just need to store them somewhere else for a short period of time. From what I can tell, it seems that it is legal to do because she is a blood relative. Any input is greatly appreciated and even links to this topic would be great. TIA!

I know of no reason you can't

As long as grandma is not a felon or runs a halfway house you are fine, assuming she resides in Oregon.

You could consign them, but set the price abnormally high. The consignment shop would need to provide security for the items along with insurance.

From what some people have told me, is it is immediate family, mom, dad, brother, sister. As grandparents could be considered extended family.

Per SB941 the only option now for a legal transfer w/o an FFL is from:

(A) A transferor's spouse or domestic partner;
(B) A transferor's parent or stepparent;
(C) A transferor's child or stepchild;
(D) A transferor's sibling;
(E) A transferor's grandparent;
(F) A transferor's grandchild;
(G) A transferor's aunt or uncle;
(H) A transferor's first cousin;
(I) A transferor's niece or nephew; or
(J) The spouse or domestic partner of a person specified in subparagraphs (B) to (I) of this paragraph.

As I understand, a "transfer" is to be giving them the firearms, so to speak. Am I overthinking this? If that's the case, could I technically not go to the house, grab a gun, and go to the range?

Do what you want, you are legally fine. replace "transfer" with "gift" or "loan". There is no paperwork BS, you do not need to ask permission or get anyones blessing.

Fair point. I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't get in trouble. That's it. I appreciate your help.

You could consign them, but set the price abnormally high. The consignment shop would need to provide security for the items along with insurance.

Then as I just learned, you will have to do a background check to get them all back.

You are idiot if you do this, you will have to pay to get YOUR property back.

I don't believe so. That's saying you can transfer without a FFL to those certain family members.

the point of the exceptions is so borrowing, gifting, trading among Family legally able to own firearms requires no permission or notification..

I was referring to the comment about putting them on consignment.

Why not?

"Rent a room."

I mean.....

Say that you were to rent a room from her. Install a lock on the door. Now, that room has become no different from a storage locker.

As for the "storage business"?

Whatever. I ain't saying.

Aloha, Mark

I had to store all my guns at my parent's home twice now-- Dad made me give him the safe combo but far as I can tell he never stole anything

It's sad people have to wonder if they can keep THEIR property at their OWN family members house without getting in trouble.
