Are background checks required every time an Oregon CHL holder purchases a firearm?

  1. Yes, without exception

  2. No, CHL holders are exempt

  3. Yes, but only from unlicensed sellers

  4. Yes, but with some exceptions for private sales

The correct answer is: No, CHL holders are exempt

Oregon requires background checks for all firearm purchases, but CHL holders are exempt because they have already undergone a background check as part of the CHL application process. Option A is incorrect because background checks are not required for private sales from another CHL holder. Option C is incorrect because background checks are required for all firearm purchases, regardless of the seller's license status. Option D is incorrect because CHL holders are exempt from background checks, regardless of the type of sale.
