Top Reasons to Get Your Concealed Carry Permit

[Ura-Ki]

Ammosexual!!! I'm declaring my self Metric Ammosexual! I can now lean on the entire gun counter!

So a few people here have mentioned a legal difference between a loaded and unloaded gun for concealed carry or carry in a car. I can't find it in Oregon law. Can someone point me to the right code #?


Thanks.

I chose to get my CC permit because I wanted to carry a pistol under my coat while hunting. In Washington State it is illegal to carry a handgun concealed without a permit to do so, even when carrying a rifle out hunting. I've never even seen a game warden, but as soon as I tried to carry without a permit I'd get caught, I choose to carry at other times but not very often.

I think it's about reasons to get a permit/license, whether you carry or not. (?)

Having one doesn't do anything to get around wait time/ NICS in Washington.

Actually it does. You have a CPL and after a NICs for a new pistol purchase you can walk out with your new pistol same day...no waiting period with a CPL.

Mainly to eliminate some hassles for when I transport firearms in my own vehicles. the rules for transporting firearms in a vehicle without a CHL is a real PITA.

F why. It's my right.

No it's not. Put them in the car. Get in. Start it. Put on your favorite radio station. Drive.

If you plan on driving around like you robbed a bank maybe.

Still waiting on my name change to get done before I can get my Oregon carry permit... (I should have got it done 30 some odd years ago..) but I will get mine to make sure that me and my wife have a chance if something ever comes up. I told the wife she has to get one as well, she doesnt have to carry herself if she doesnt want to but there will be times I will have to put the gun away in the truck while she is in it so she needs to have the permit just in case..

Ammosexual... Perhaps we can petition the courts for a new protected class???

Thats what Im "shooting" for

 

[Skier]

Maybe in Washington - CHL's have no effect on wait times/BGC times in Oregon.

Though you'd think they should...

I'm all for your classification ZA! You should be able to use any gun store you want, no questions asked! There's room for both AK and AR folks, side by side!!

except if youre trying to buy beer from an idiot.

The state booze stores for the past 5+ years only carded me when paying via a credit card. That stopped noticably when the new credit cards with chips showed up last year. They checked ID in the past to make sure you weren't using a stolen credit card because the lost money would be on them. Debit cards? Not their problem dudes.

my post was about a CHL not being accepted as a Gov. issued ID.

 

[ZigZagZeke]

The Idea of asking permission and paying the masters just doesn't set well with me.. And about carrying in the car.. how long does it take to slam a loaded mag in and hit the slide?

In Multnomah County just having a loaded mag is a crime if you don't have a CHL. FYI.

Now, is it me or do you also find that totally ridiculous?

Yup and there are a lot of things requiring ID that don't make sense, including your point about CHL.

Absolutely and its just another "law" in a long line of them that is all about making it a hassle to own and carry firearms. Death of a thousand cuts. Same with smoking laws over the past 30 years. Drug, seatbelt, helmet laws, low flow toilets etc. that just make life more of a hassle and give the government more control. Those comparisons are what has driven me to "constitutional carry" in the past ten years. I don't believe in background checks anymore either as a good thing. Its just one more law, often a hypocritical one that government holds the people to but not themselves.
