Does having an Oregon CHL exempt you from the background check when purchasing a firearm?

  1. Yes, in all cases

  2. No, background checks are always required

  3. Yes, but only for private sales

  4. Yes, but only when purchasing from a licensed dealer

The correct answer is: No, background checks are always required

Having an Oregon CHL does not exempt you from the background check when purchasing a firearm. While having a concealed handgun license may allow you to skip a background check in some states, Oregon still requires a background check for all gun purchases. Option A is incorrect because it implies that a CHL always exempts you from a background check, which is not true in this specific case of Oregon. Option C is incorrect because it only pertains to private sales, not purchasing from a licensed dealer. Option D is incorrect because it only applies to purchases from a licensed dealer, not all cases of buying a firearm.
