Well, open carry refers to when you wear your firearm or carry it in a holster in a way that is visible to others.  There are a few states in the US that ban open carry, but in Oregon this is perfectly legal and lawful, as long as you are not in a school zone, are wearing the required orange safety vest, and keep your firearm unloaded.

Well, there's actually no legislation that regulates carrying concealed weapons in the state of Oregon.

I'm buying my first firearm and I'm wondering what my city's laws are around gun ownership. I live in Eugene, Oregon.

Well, there are certain restrictions that may be placed on firearms in your city, but the general legal rules in Oregon are that:

- you may own firearms and ammunition,
- you may use firearms for self-defense or lawful recreational purposes, and
- you may bring a loaded firearm into or possess a loaded firearm in your home.
