Additionally, Measure 114 prohibits manufacturing, importing, purchasing, selling, possessing, using, or transferring ammunition magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds.

However, the agency has not offered a plan for how the systems will work, how they will be created, or how the Measure will be enforced.<\/p>\n<p>The Oregon State Police has not responded to multiple requests for details regarding implementation.

The Firearms Protection Coalition and Second Amendment Foundation have signaled that they are sitting on the sidelines until it is clear how Oregon officials plan to proceed with its implementation. To that end, FPC and SAF have particular parts of the Measure 114 that they are already preparing to challenge.<\/p>\n<p>The portion concerning the magazine ban tops the list. The permitting and training requirements, which the infrastructure and are requirements are not currently available, will also be legal points to be challenged.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"233\" alt=\"Second Amendment Foundation\" class=\"wp-image-31567 jetpack-lazy-image\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/2af.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/2af.jpg?resize=300%2C117&amp;ssl=1 300w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/2af.jpg?resize=600%2C233&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"233\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/2af.jpg?resize=600%2C233&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"Second Amendment Foundation\" class=\"wp-image-31567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/2af.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/2af.jpg?resize=300%2C117&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption>National  gun rights organizations such as the Second Amendment Foundation are the great defenders of our rights. Pick your favorites and support them.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>I have never trusted that common sense would prevail when anti-gun fanatics can judge shop or the legislation is in a known liberal-leaning (anti gun) jurisdiction. The Federal government is restricted from creating registries of firearm owners and the firearms they own. Measure 114 seeks to do at the State level what the Federal government is prohibited from doing. No one is safer because legal gun owners can only carry 10 rounds in a magazine. Criminals have no such restriction.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, the People have never been made safer by restricting law-abiding gun owners\u2019 access to firearms. And by definition, criminals\u2019 access to firearms are unaffected by the draconian laws. The only benefit derived by Measure 114\u2019s implementation, and a less-safe society, is to those who prey on the innocent, the weak, and the vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>If you live in Oregon and are on the fence about purchasing a new gun or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cheaperthandirt.com\/parts-and-accessories\/magazines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">magazines<\/a>\u2026 Get them before the madness goes into effect and the court challenges begin. For the rest of the country, stay active in your state\u2019s politics and squash these bills before they get started and threaten the protection the Second Amendment offers.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4 ai-viewport-2 ai-viewport-3\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<!--End of Article Ad for Mobile and Tablet--><br \/>\n<a target=\"\u201d_blank\u201d\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cheaperthandirt.com\/contest.html?cid=contest?utm_source=CTD_Blog_AD&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=blog_range_day_friday_mobile&amp;utm_content=square\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/rdf_nov22_ad_mob.jpg?w=640&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" class=\" jetpack-lazy-image\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/rdf_nov22_ad_mob.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/noscript><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3 ai-viewport-1\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<!--End of Article Ad for Desktop--><br \/>\n<a target=\"\u201d_blank\u201d\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cheaperthandirt.com\/financing.html\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" align=\"center\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/credova_ad.jpg?w=500&amp;is-pending-load=1#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" class=\" jetpack-lazy-image\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.cheaperthandirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/credova_ad.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1\" align=\"center\" px=\"\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/noscript><\/a><\/div>\n<h4>Do you live in Oregon?
