What is NOT a requirement to apply for an Oregon CHL?

  1. Being a U.S. citizen

  2. Having a valid driver's license

  3. Owning a handgun

  4. Being a resident of Oregon or a neighboring state

The correct answer is: Owning a handgun

Owning a handgun is not a requirement to apply for an Oregon CHL. This is because the state does not require CHL applicants to own a handgun before obtaining a permit. Option A, being a U.S. citizen, may seem like a possible requirement, but it is not always the case as lawful permanent residents can also apply for a CHL. Option B, having a valid driver's license, is also not a requirement as there is a non-driver's identification card that can be used instead. Option D may initially seem like a valid answer, but it is not the case as Oregon allows residents of neighboring states to apply for a CHL as long as they meet the eligibility requirements.
