"Reduction of Gun Violence Act" on the ballot in Oregon, Nov 2022
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/or...ict-gun-bill-ballot-gop-gains-ground-gov-race
"A proposed gun control measure in Oregon would create a state firearm registry and a strict permitting process.
"The measure would ban large-capacity magazines over 10 rounds — except for current owners, law enforcement and the military — and require a permit to purchase any gun. To qualify for a permit, an applicant would need to complete an approved firearm safety course that includes a review of state and federal laws and a demonstration before a certified instructor that the applicant can properly lock, load, unload, fire and store a gun.
"They would also be subject to a fee of up to $65, need to pass a criminal background check and need to be determined by a permit agent to not pose a danger to themselves or others based on their mental state or past behavior.
"Applicants would apply for the permit from the local police chief, county sheriff, or their designees. Additionally, state police would create a firearms database, and applicants would be fingerprinted and photographed.
"Permits would be valid for five years. Anyone denied a permit or who has a permit revoked could appeal the decision."
