In Oregon, is it legal to carry a loaded firearm in your vehicle with a CHL?

Yes, without restrictions
No, it's always illegal
Yes, but it must be concealed
Yes, but only in the trunk or a locked container

The correct answer is: Yes, but it must be concealed

In Oregon, individuals with a valid Concealed Handgun License (CHL) are allowed to carry a loaded firearm in their vehicle, but there are specific requirements about how it must be carried. The correct answer reflects that the firearm must be concealed. This means that while the firearm can be loaded and within reach, it should not be visible to others outside the vehicle. This regulation is designed to ensure safety and is in line with the concealed carry principles throughout Oregon. The law recognizes the rights of CHL holders to possess and carry firearms in their vehicles while also emphasizing the importance of responsible carrying practices. This balance helps prevent unintentional exposure while allowing licensed individuals the convenience of having their firearm accessible when needed. The other options suggest either unrestricted carrying, which does not align with the legal requirement for concealment, or impractical restrictions regarding storage, which do not apply to CHL holders.
