Can you carry a concealed handgun in a bank with a CHL in Oregon?

  1. Yes, without exception

  2. No, it's always prohibited

  3. Yes, unless the bank has posted no weapons allowed

  4. Only with permission from the bank manager

The correct answer is: Yes, unless the bank has posted no weapons allowed

Carrying a concealed handgun in a bank in Oregon is allowed under certain conditions, primarily dependent on whether the bank has established specific policies regarding firearms. If the bank has posted signs indicating that no weapons are allowed on the premises, then individuals with a Concealed Handgun License (CHL) must adhere to that restriction. This aligns with the general principle in Oregon law that private property owners, including banks, can determine their own rules regarding concealed carry. Thus, if a bank has not posted such a prohibition, then a person with a CHL is permitted to carry a concealed handgun there. This reasoning clarifies why the correct choice highlights the role of posted signs in determining whether or not carrying a concealed firearm is permissible in that particular location.
