I talked to the owner of the LGS here and he is not a happy camper. I’ve known him since he was a kid working at his fathers store. He’s in his 60's now and I don’t think I’ve heard him like this. He didn’t really want to talk about it, but uttered a few colorful words on the subject. He thinks I still have time to get a G26, so I went ahead and ordered one. As of when I talked to him this morning, there was 4,000 CCW holders in line for the background check. I’ve been procrastinating on a G26 for a long time and now I wish I’d gone ahead and done it years ago. Planning on trading my G43 for it. Holding my breath that it can all be accomplished in the next 2 weeks and 2 days. This is like a bad nightmare. --------------- Gary Will Fly for Food... and more Ammo Mosquito Lubrication Video If Guns Cause Crime, Mine Are Defective.... Ted Nugent | |||

at this point I'd be asking your LGS if they are following the 3 day rule though 12/7. According to SOS the updated for 114 laws go into effect 12/8. We're of course still hoping a judge puts that on hold. "Both state and federal laws provide that the gun dealer may deliver the firearm to the purchaser after a defined period (approximately three business days), if OSP does not provide notice that the purchaser has been approved or denied." source: https://www.oregon.gov/osp/pro...0Unit%20Overview.pdf As it was explained to me, three full business days must elapse after your check is entered into the FICS system. So basically you walk in day one do the paperwork and in the queue, days 2,3,4 are the business days, and day 5 you can pick up your weapon assuming you're still in the queue and no adverse reports back. The key here is business days are weekdays not including holidays. Obviously the check will eventually complete, so it's in your best interest to be confident you'll pass the check, lest there be a visit later asking for the weapon and maybe you along with it. Not sure how that all works, never want to find out either. normal checks (non-CHL) were over 20,000 in pending today, so they are not expected to clear before 12/8. | |||

I didn’t think of asking that question, but I’m assuming that he will. He should have the gun in 3 days, maybe 4 because of Thanksgiving and that gives 11 days from the paperwork to December 7. I just hope he still wants my G43 in view of the current situation. My CCW should help with the wait time.... I hope. --------------- Gary Will Fly for Food... and more Ammo Mosquito Lubrication Video If Guns Cause Crime, Mine Are Defective.... Ted Nugent | |||

Similar to CA. Geographically by land mass, most of the state is red, but the large cities and coastal areas are heavily populated to give Democrats a huge advantage, usually a 60-65% edge. Hillary Clinton pounded Trump in CA with a 62% - 31% win.

Sadly, I don't think it likely you will change anything by staying. Decades ago I lived in upstate NY. The real upstate, not the barely north of the city faux upstate. The entire state was controlled by big city politics. Our taxes were huge, regulations strict, but no money came back to us for roads or other services. Businesses fled. People fled. Towns that were once prosperous are dead. There are many great aspects to rural upstate. As you describe your state, there are so many great reasons to be there. But you can't fight the trend. Oregon is not going to become what it was. It is not going to turn conservative Constitutionalist. The reality is it is now controlled by a few urbanized counties. Look to NY from 1970 to today to see what is in store for other states like yours. | |||

It might be nice if counties could enact sanctions and embargoes. This balance of power is not right. Cities should not dictate rural ways of life. Something needs to change. A majority does not make something right. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it." L.Tolstoy "A government is just a body of people, usually, notably, ungoverned."

I wonder if a state run Electoral College could be a possibility. If that was the case, this measure would have failed miserably. I can dream, can’t I? I think 72% of this county voted against Measure 114 as did the majority of the counties in this state, and now, yet another Donkey Governor in Salem. Grrrrr What happened to that predicted red wave? Did it cause pro gun voters to relax and not vote?? --------------- Gary Will Fly for Food... and more Ammo Mosquito Lubrication Video If Guns Cause Crime, Mine Are Defective.... Ted Nugent | |||

Yes, I was born and raised in Idaho. Left there many years ago. Still have family there. Seems like a very large number of people in eastern Oregon and Washington have been working to secede from those states for some time. They want to become West Idaho. Basically, everything east of the mountains would become part of Idaho.

This is a catch 22. This would probably require a state constitutional amendment. In most states this requires a referendum, which would be one citizen one vote. How's that going to work in a state where most of the voters live in the cities, and would NOT want that change?

Just Ordered some mags that I've needed for a while. Didn't get around to ordering them until now. But I also plan to donate to whatever group is fighting 114. Not the NRA. They have been ASLEEP on this one, which I find very sad. . | |||

I'm confused about the normal-capacity magazine issue. I read in one source that 114 prohibited the POSSESSION of magazines of >10 rounds. If that is the case, why are people rushing to buy them? I'd appreciate a clarification, as someone I know is holding some magazines I can't have (for now) in CA. _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

I have found it comical that people have jumped on the “Not one more cent” bandwagon of defunding the NRA, and in the same breath they get upset because the NRA “has been asleep” and other garbage talking points because they don’t have the funding necessary to do what the NRA does. (Insert Obligatory comments about LaPierres wardrobe or their CNN talking points) It is just like Portland defunding the police, and then getting upset that the police are no longer around and crime going through the roof. It doesn’t really take a rocket surgeon to find who to blame on this..... Yes, defunding the NRA has worked out so well for the folks of Oregon that the obvious answer is to double down and expect a different result. | |||

Measure 114 is a de-facto ban on pistols with the capability of accepting magazines of more than a permanent capacity of 10 rounds or less.

Some of us are going to be physically challenging this measure by carrying the magazines that are going to be made illegal to carry in public. Also I don't want to have to drive three or more hours to Idaho in order to buy 20 round magazines for an M1a or an AR-15. If it comes down to armed resistance against our government one should have the tools in order to resist. __________________________ More blessed than I deserve. http://davesphotography7055.zenfolio.com/f238091154 | |||

The text of Prop 114 is 12 pages long, a really convoluted piece of legislation. But the magazine section states the sale, manufacturing, importation, use, purchase, or sale is banned. But language in the law states that one can possess and use mags purchased before the ban date on their property and at gun ranges, competitions, etc. This section is written poorly, banning possession, but then vaguely outlines allowed circumstances.

I haven't seen the NRA being effective in the last several years, and I don't know that it has been involved in any of the major pro-2A precedent setting cases. Heller and McDonald were driven by the Second Amendment Foundation. NYSRPA vs Bruen was driven by, well NYSRPA (NY State Rifle and Pistol Association.) As far as I'm concerned the NRA has been asleep at the switch for years under Wayne Lapierre's watch. So withholding funding from it is appropriate. Other organizations have been doing the heavy lifting lately. That's where the money should go.
