legality
Legality can be defined as an act, agreement, or contract that is consistent with the law or state of being lawful or unlawful in a given jurisdiction.
Legal principle that an accused may not be prosecuted for an act that is not declared a crime in that jurisdiction is actually about the Principle of legality which is part of the overall concept of legality.
I’m wondering what the legal status is of shooting at WA gun ranges as an Oregon resident. Can I bring my AR, pistols, and standard cap mags to places like English Pit and Safefire?
Is it illegal to add a mag tube extension (allowing for 6+ capacity) to a foreign made shotgun? It would appear that it is but maybe I am missing something?

New bill says you cant question the legality of newlaws except in leftist Marion county.
Senate Bill 348, Prozanski's omnibus anti-gun bill, is now scheduled for a "work session" on Monday at 1pm.

This state is getting tiresome, trying to figure out what is legal and what is not.
* Short barrel shotguns are illegal in WA. Seems pretty straight forward. WA law say they are.
* But are Shockwaves and Tac-14 actually SBS, in WA? Not so straight forward.
* ATF considers them a "firearm" but...
Howdy. Still relatively new to this forum.
Moved to WA late last year from a conservative community in California. I knew the firearms laws inside and out in that state. Still learning here. (Please, forgive my ignorance in advance.)
Question: is it legal for me to purchase a short-barreled...
Can a "Firearm" like the Troy A4 be legally converted to a pistol or 16+ inch barreled rifle and then back to a "Firearm"?
Similar question for Mossberg Shockwave. Can a 18+ inch barrel and stock be swapped in to make it a shotgun and then be converted back to a "Firearm" again?
I had a weird thought at work today while discussing with my coworker about shooting while in a boat. Is it legal? Say, if you were way away from any one, beached a boat, set up targets and went back out onto the water. We weren’t sure about the legality of it, I’m not wanting to do this, just...
Hello everyone. I would like to ask your help in determining if certain firearms are legal in Oregon. First is the mini Draco. Is that legal here and what about the configuration? Next are 80% home builds, such as the Glock type handguns, and the Ar 15 type rifles? I thank you.
Save the discussion on the wisdom of buying or shooting reloads for another thread. This thread is for relaying cited sources of BATF or other law information regarding legality of selling reloads.
I have bought many reloads from members here and believe they have all sold them legally. If you...
I ASSUME a thread-on, muzzle brake/flash suppressor device is entirely legal as long as it is solid and one piece correct?
Reason is I am going to machine one for my Ruger PCC. Mostly just as a hobby project and nothing actually necessary but I have been wanting to make one for it and I...
An interesting read. Specifically related to Oregon.
No idea how a court would view the arugement. - - or if any court has heard such arguments as they relate to Covid.
It's an extensive list of the laws which the author believes support the view that vaccine passports are unconstitutional...
Hello everyone,
I was curious if anyone knows for sure if it is still legal for someone to purchase and build a Polymer 80 kit for personal use in WA state? I've been eyeballing things on 80p Builder, but I am concerned because I know a law passed awhile back that I think pertains to these.
Thanks
I was just wondering if anyone understands what the laws pertaining to making a prototype firearm are, both at the Federal level, and in Oregon? Is there a pathway to do this legally? I have some interesting ideas for building a competition revolver, but I don't want to turn myself into a...
Hey y’all,
I gotta take the girlfriend to an appointment in Vancouver, WA tomorrow. Instead of driving all the way back to Beaverton I thought about killing time at The Place To Shoot before I have to pick her up. So I would want to take a couple firearms with me for this trip.
My question is...
