I have never heard of any over there. I open carry in a drop leg holster when I'm there outside of sisters/bend. I go camping in Christmas valley alot and open carry all around that area.

It's not a huge deal over in central/eastern Oregon. You will have more trouble in bend cuz of all the libs moving out there. But even in bend I have seen some open carry dudes. It's just important to know the laws and look confident and people assume you are supposed to have your gun which is true.

This is the tread that covers most of Oregon law as a whole. As time progresses I will move on to individual cities to post and laws that pertain to that particular city. I'm a student so I don't have a ton of time to research laws that don't really affect me.

As I understand it, the only areas east of the Cascades prohibiting open carry are Bend city parks. I understand maybe that OC is OK there if one has a CCW, which I don't, thus the poor memory.

All local ordinances which prohibit loaded carry is inapplicable to Oregon CHL holders.
