Are applicants for the Oregon CHL required to demonstrate competency with a handgun?

  1. Yes, through a practical exam

  2. No, only need to pass a written test

  3. Yes, by completing a certified firearms training course

  4. No, but they must read the safety manual

The correct answer is: Yes, by completing a certified firearms training course

Applicants for the Oregon CHL are required to demonstrate competency with a handgun in order to obtain their license. Option A is incorrect because while a practical exam may be included in a certified firearms training course, it is not the only way to demonstrate competency. Option B is incorrect because a written test alone does not show practical application and proficiency with a handgun. Option D is incorrect because simply reading a safety manual does not show competency. Therefore, option C is the best choice as it encompasses a combination of practical training and written knowledge assessment.
