Hello all, I’ve been trying to find and answer to this question and to say it’s confusing would be generous. If I have an 80% lower that I’ve purchased/finished/assembled from a couple of years ago, what are the legal requirements for ownership in OR? I know there are things pending, that might change ownership in the future. I just want to know what I would need to do to follow the laws. Do I need to have it serialized? If so, what are the requirements for that? Or am I ok to own it as long as I don’t plan on selling it? Very confusing. Thank you all in advance for any advice you can provide. -Matt |

Unless they changed the bill, I read it like a week ago, they banned importing, making, finishing a 80% lower immediately, the only thing they gave until September 2024 was possession. To give you time to destroy them. I understood it that the only way you could keep them was if a licensed manufacturer marked them. Then they'd legally be the manufacturer. Good luck getting anybody to do that. If you think I'm wrong, post the wording in the bill/new law that you think allows you to keep anything or to continue buying more. I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice. |

Be interested in if it's specifically 80% and with a 0-79% build can skirt around it until it gets thrown out or just publicly ignored. |

With yesterdays ruling on frames and receivers I think this will be easy to shoot down in court. As long as it’s a court outside the pockets of the state. |
