What type of firearm safety training is required to apply for a CHL in Oregon?

  1. A hunter's safety course

  2. An NRA firearms safety course

  3. Any firearms safety course approved by the county sheriff

  4. No training is required

The correct answer is: Any firearms safety course approved by the county sheriff

In Oregon, in order to apply for a CHL (Concealed Handgun License), you are required to complete a firearms safety course that is approved by the county sheriff. This means that options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not specifically mention the requirement of approval by the sheriff. While a hunter's safety course and an NRA firearms safety course may provide valuable safety training, they do not automatically fulfill the requirement for a CHL. Option D is incorrect because it states that no training is required, which is not accurate according to Oregon law. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as it specifies the necessary approval by the county sheriff.
