12. Not all of them are checked.

You don't need to conduct a background check if you're privately selling a gun to someone else (outside of a gun show). SB 1551 tried to expand background checks to almost all sales, but it died in committee.



Oregon law requires criminal background checks on those purchasing handguns from a licensed dealer or firearms from anyone at a gun show. It allows those selling guns to request background checks for sales not conducted at gun shows, but does not require them. As part of the background check, the seller must provide certain identifying information about the buyer and the firearm.

Any more lies you want try before crawling back to your hole?
