Which of the following places is a person prohibited from carrying a concealed firearm, even with a CHL in Oregon?

  1. State parks

  2. Private vehicles

  3. Federal buildings

  4. Public sidewalks

The correct answer is: Federal buildings

In Oregon, individuals with a Concealed Handgun License (CHL) are generally subject to certain restrictions regarding where they can carry concealed firearms. One prominent restriction applies to federal buildings. Carrying a concealed firearm in federal buildings is prohibited, irrespective of state laws or individual licenses. This is due to the fact that federal regulations take precedence in these areas, establishing specific guidelines that must be followed, which typically include a complete ban on firearms. The other locations, such as state parks and private vehicles, allow for the presence of concealed firearms under specific circumstances. Public sidewalks are also generally permissible for carrying a concealed handgun, as long as the individual has a valid CHL. Understanding these regulations is crucial for responsible gun ownership and ensuring that you remain compliant with the law.
