    Oregon Castle Doctrine??

    Oregon used to be a duty to retreat state (which did NOT apply inside of your home) between 1981 and 2007. A case called State v. Sandoval fixed this problem.

    National Right-To-Carry Reciprocity Bill Introduced

    You know, what's funny is that it's always the concealed carry only crowd that bashes OC'ers and admonishes them for open carry. I've never seen it the other way around.
