Oregon: Ballot Measure 114 :Weapons Bans, Mandatory Training, Social Media Snooping (www.ammoland.com)

First-time gun buyers, this could well require that you have a gun BEFORE you can get a permit to buy a gun!?

“The measure requires a “class” with live fire training before a person can apply for a permit to purchase a firearm. There are virtually no facilities that will be available for this training. For first time gun buyers this could well require that you have a gun before you can get a permit to buy a gun.

The measure only allows those approved by police to provide the required “training” to apply for a permit. Police in Oregon are underfunded and understaffed. There is no plan in place to actually provide any training and virtually no police have the facilities or manpower to provide classes. Police in urban areas are already not responding to most violent crimes. Police in rural areas are spread thin and rarely have the facilities for the required class.
