Purchasing a handgun in Oregon ?

reply

yes i think as long as the states are connected you can buy a gun in that state
its instant background check
i dont know the answers to your other questions i live in central oregon

You can not buy a pistol in another state from a FFL holder (gun dealer) and take it home with you. You have to have it shipped to a dealer in Washington and then go threw the normal transfer paperwork and pay whatever fee the FFL holder charges for the transfer.

Nope.... just as Cuervo stated..You can not buy a pistol in another state from a FFL holder (gun dealer) and take it home with you.

But check around at gun clubs and forums, lots of good ffl guys, some may only charge ya $5 for the trouble...

I've waited 60 days in Oregon and still no Taurus 24/7 OSS... they say they will get it done.. My question to htem was when? They have no idea. I think I'll send them the bill...

i had something similar happen to me, and learned the state police can hold off as long as they wish and don't need to give a reason, but mine was for my AR lower...
no one seems to care about this until it happens to them. i feel your pain...

He could technically buy a gun in Oregon as long as he had it shipped to an ffl in Washington who would then do his BGC. The ffl would charge a transfer fee and the $10 bgc

Then why not just buy it from a WA Dealer? The transfer fee is then a non-issue.

Unless it's "the last one in the world available" or some fancy collector's item, why go out of state to purchase a firearm that has hundreds, if not thousands, of the same product right where he lives?

I agree. It's just easier (and cheaper) to look locally.

For you to buy a Firearm in Oregon legally. It must transfer to you through a WA FFL where you have to go through what every WA requires as a BGC and TAXES. This includes A new oe used firearm from a FFL or a private party. WA does not let you out of the Taxes due.

If you notice the join date, I suspect it was dredged up by fellow refugees looking for a new home. That is what I am doing.

Not only OLD, but WONG. You can LEGALLY buy long guns across any state lines (as long as it is legal in both states) as long as it is though an FFL.

NO FTF sales are legal across state lines.
