Police carry out regular inspections of firearm safe storage and will contact you to arrange an appointment when they are planning to conduct safe storage inspections in your area. Alternatively, you can contact your local Licensing Police and make arrangements for your firearm safe storage to be inspected - use the police station search to locate your local Police Station.
Licensing Police will determine whether storage arrangement are acceptable under Part 4 of the Firearms Act , Part 4A of the Weapons Prohibition Act or comply with conditions imposed on a firearms licence or permit. Firearms licence holders can possess and use a registered firearm of the category and for the genuine reason authorised by their firearms licence — please refer to the Legislative Requirements for Firearms Licence Holders available on the Legislation page.
Therefore you can possess and use the category of firearm you are authorised for on your licence, whether the firearm is registered to you or registered to another firearms licence holder. Confirm the firearm is registered and the firearms licence holder holds a valid licence by sighting the Registration Certificate for the firearm and using the Check your Licence, Permit or PTA Public Register link on the Firearms Registry website to check the validity of the person's firearms licence.
Each licensee has a legal obligation to ensure that the safe storage address details provided to the Commissioner are accurate and up to date. Should there be a change in the address where firearms are stored, the licensee must, within 14 days after the change occurs, notify the Firearms Registry in writing of the new safe storage location and other particulars — this can be done on-line by completing the Change of Personal Details Form.

There's no laws on keeping paperwork for private sales, so it doesn't matter anyway. You can just hide it or bury it, and it'd be just the same.
If anything, anytime I hear someone saying they want a to buy a gun without paperwork, it always makes me think that maybe they're not legally allowed to own a firearm. I know not everyone who likes unregistered guns is a criminal, but it still makes me wonder at times.
The good thing about buying through an FFL though, is that at least you have proof you bought it if it ever gets stolen. I'd still like to see them do away with background checks altogether, but other than the extra time and money it takes, I don't see it as an issue. One plus to buying from a FFL and doing a background check is knowing the firearm is not stolen. Yea I really dont mind buying from a dealer.. Bronze Supporter. If you have a CCL and I hope you all do, the goberment knows you have guns.
They just don't know how many. Wasn't it Cass Sunstien that said "Infiltrate 'thier' chatrooms"? HalfNutz Kirkland Juanita. Messages Reactions 5. Click to expand I didn't know there were any gun registration listings in Oregon and Washington. Maybe I am wrong, Seattle, I don't know.
I would not get into the habit of tossing that term around. Its too easy for it to become accepted. Yes, gun sales are recorded by the dealer you buy a weapon from and its called in to NCIS checking. But they are not allowed according to law to keep NCIS listings for the long term. That was the trade off to going with the NCIS program in the first place along with elimination of waiting periods in some states.
A gun can be traced to a dealer and to the origional purchaser, but that sure is not a "registration listing" like you would find in Chicago, NYC or DC.
Once gun registration becomes the law of the land, you can bet the bank that government will come pick up your weapons as some point. That has been the history in most countries in the past.

For the seller it's a peace of mind that the firearm is not stolen. If the gov. You shoot someone, even in self defense and you'll be the one doing life in prison.
Stand up and support your second amendment right, and keep the guns in the hands of the good guys and you won't have to worry.

I can't for the world of me understand how having the forethought to self police one's community to keep it honest is double speak. The alternatives are anarchy, or total external control - the latter of which would involve much double speak, while the former would involve no-speak - free speech and rights fall apart as much in a society where there is no formal protection of them as they do in a society in which they are formally restricted, this is something to bear in mind.
I, for one, have no fear whatsoever of the OSP - an organization which I greatly respect - having a transient record of my purchase. Worst case scenario, in my mind, they loose the paper on a furlough day.
Likewise, I have no problem with the shop keeping their legally required sales log for the BATFE - it's always nice to have that information on record for my use, in case of fire, theft, etc.
I also have absolutely no problem making a private purchase, but if I ever catch myself thinking about it from a registration issue, then I'll eat my tin foil hat. I have been carrying a firearm - or firearms - for near fifty years, all over the Country.
I have had not less than 20 encounters with various policing agencies and likely double that. I have never - that is NEVER - had a Policeman ask me if the firearms were "registered", never had one ask me to hand over my firearm, and never had one run a check on the serial number s. I must get stopped by nicer Policemen than y'alls do. Redcap Lewis County, WA. Messages 3, Reactions 2, PDXFirearms said:. I don't care how I get them as long as the gun is legal. I view the backround check and fee as a tax on law obiding citizens.
Those of us with ccl's have already been checked better than they can on a 10 minute phone call. That said we need to keep every avenue for legal gun ownership open and fully supported.
Last Edited: Jul 13, Both Oregon and Washington have system which can help you do a "criminal background check" on yourself. Here's the link for Oregon State Police which explains the procedure. California has particularly strict gun laws. Many innocent or well-intentioned people find themselves facing the possibility of harsh fines and lengthily jail sentences for firearms-related offenses.
