Are fingerprinting and a photograph required for a CHL application in Oregon?

  1. Yes, both are required

  2. No, neither are required

  3. Only fingerprinting is required

  4. Only a photograph is required

The correct answer is: Yes, both are required

Both fingerprinting and a photograph are indeed required when applying for a Concealed Handgun License (CHL) in Oregon. This requirement is in place to ensure proper identification and to facilitate background checks as part of the application process. Fingerprinting allows law enforcement to obtain a clear record of the individual's history, which is essential for determining eligibility for a CHL. A photograph further establishes the identity of the applicant and is used to produce the actual license. These measures enhance public safety by ensuring that applicants have undergone thorough vetting before being granted the privilege to carry a concealed firearm.
