If your training was taught by an NRA instructor or LE instructor and included a component on handgun safety, you should be fine.Does anyone know or know of someone that that has been able to use another states CHL as proof of completing the required class and just filled out the paperwork and paid the county?
ORS 166.291*(1)*(f) Demonstrates competence with a handgun by any one of the following:
***** (A) Completion of any hunter education or hunter safety course approved by the State Department of Fish and Wildlife or a similar agency of another state if handgun safety was a component of the course;
***** (B) Completion of any National Rifle Association firearms safety or training course if handgun safety was a component of the course;
***** (C) Completion of any firearms safety or training course or class available to the general public offered by law enforcement, community college, or private or public institution or organization or firearms training school utilizing instructors certified by the National Rifle Association or a law enforcement agency if handgun safety was a component of the course;
***** (D) Completion of any law enforcement firearms safety or training course or class offered for security guards, investigators, reserve law enforcement officers or any other law enforcement officers if handgun safety was a component of the course;
***** (E) Presents evidence of equivalent experience with a handgun through participation in organized shooting competition or military service;
***** (F) Is licensed or has been licensed to carry a firearm in this state, unless the license has been revoked; or
***** (G) Completion of any firearms training or safety course or class conducted by a firearms instructor certified by a law enforcement agency or the National Rifle Association if handgun safety was a component of the course;
If your DD214 shows evidence of handgun qualification, yes. If you were rifle-only, no. A medic friend of mine never qualified on the M9, and they turned him down.I took no classes to get mine, Not sure about any other county but Columbia accepts dd214's as proof of training.
This does not exactly answer your question but it is close. I live in WA. I took a single class that qualified me for Oregon and Utah. I sent away for the Utah permit by mail, and drove to Oregon to apply for the permit there. I had to do some research to discover which county in Oregon would be receptive to me doing this, since I do not live in OR. I ended up at Columbia County, which allows out of state people to apply for CHL if they submit a letter explaining why they want one, and that they frequently enter or pass through Oregon.Does anyone know or know of someone that that has been able to use another states CHL as proof of completing the required class and just filled out the paperwork and paid the county?
I've had my OR permit from Multnomah County since I first got it many years (and renewals) ago. At that time you had to take the OR approved course, have a letter from the WA Health Dept that your weren't and adjudicated mental case, a letter from your employer stating it was OK to have a permit, and a letter stating why you wanted it (as I remember). Training was done in a room at the Sheriff's office. Letter from the Health Dept was no problem, just had to request it, letter from employer was easy since I had a business, same with the letter as to why I wanted it.I had to do some research to discover which county in Oregon would be receptive to me doing this, since I do not live in OR. I ended up at Columbia County, which allows out of state people to apply for CHL if they submit a letter explaining why they want one, and that they frequently enter or pass through Oregon.
As an example, the first county I called in Oregon not only disallowed out of state permit applications, but they also refused to tell me which counties would allow it. They were openly hostile to me on the phone. Columbia county was friendly and helpful.
