LEGISLATIVE ALERT
The GUN CONFISCATION BILL, Senate Bill 719A, was passed by the Oregon Senate on Monday, May 1, 2017 and will now move to the Oregon House of Representatives. As now amended, SB 719A would create “Extreme Risk Protection Orders,” which would allow a family member, household member, or a law enforcement agent who doesn't even know you, to petition the court to have your firearms confiscated without due process. Read more about this in the latest Oregon Firearms Federation Legislative Alert. (updated 5/2/2017)

RANGE SAFETY ORIENTATIONS FOR 2017-18 MEMBERSHIP YEAR
Please read the March 2017 Newsletter for additional information about recent range safety violations that highlight the need to bring back Range Safety Orientations for ALL MEMBERS beginning with the 2017-18 Membership Year this July. All members, new and old alike, will receive their new gate keys at their Range Safety Orientation. Further information and a schedule is forthcoming. FYI: These are not the lengthy, day long range orientations as are required by many shooting ranges. Ours can be conducted in a matter of about 15 minutes for small groups. We are requiring them to be sure you understand the full scope of the range operating procedures and rules. Please contact John Way for options if you will have difficulty getting to the range for an orientation. (updated 5/21/2017)
