What type of firearm can you legally conceal with a CHL in Oregon?

  1. Any legally owned handgun

  2. Only handguns registered in Oregon

  3. Only revolvers

  4. Only semiautomatic pistols

The correct answer is: Any legally owned handgun

A person with a Concealed Handgun License (CHL) in Oregon is permitted to conceal any legally owned handgun. This means that as long as the individual possesses the firearm legally, it can be a revolver, a semiautomatic pistol, or any other type of handgun. The focus is on the legal ownership of the firearm rather than specific classifications or registration requirements tied to the state. The other choices imply restrictions that do not align with Oregon's regulations. For instance, handguns do not have to be registered specifically in Oregon for concealed carry. Additionally, the law does not limit the type of handguns to only revolvers or semiautomatic pistols, thus allowing for a wider range of options for the license holder. This flexibility is crucial for individuals who may own various types of handguns and still wish to carry them concealed, as long as they follow all applicable laws and regulations.
