In Oregon, carrying a concealed handgun while under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances is:

  1. Allowed if you are not intoxicated

  2. Allowed with a valid CHL

  3. Prohibited

  4. Only prohibited in public places

The correct answer is: Prohibited

Carrying a concealed handgun while under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances is prohibited in Oregon, regardless of whether or not you have a valid CHL (concealed handgun license) or are intoxicated. This ensures the safety of both the individual carrying the firearm and those around them. Option A is incorrect because it implies that carrying a concealed handgun while under the influence is allowed as long as the carrier is not intoxicated, which is not true according to Oregon law. Option B is incorrect because a valid CHL does not override the prohibition of carrying a concealed handgun while under the influence. Option D is incorrect because the prohibition applies in all places, not just public places.
