Man with "Arsenel" of weapons busted in OR

[PGRChaplain]

2 handguns, a shotgun and a rifle are an Arsenal. Lucky I lost all mine at Sea, I'm thinking they haven't invented an Adjective to describe my former Arms............

You might routinely have more weapons than this in the car, but this guy doesn't seem harmless. I think they did the right thing to nip it in the bud.

Wasn't there something about the North Hollywood Shootout (1997) where the guys were stopped and had rifles, body armor, scanners and such, then were let go....with the ensuing, famous "shootout" occurring shortly thereafter?

What does the minority report say.

 

[Nojoy621]

Take out the scanner and that's what I take for a weekend camping...actually I'd probably have more!

Technically an "arsenal" is a place where firearms are manufactured while an "armory" is where firearms are stored...

Love this.

There has to be a lot more to the story than what has been reported. Obviously many if not most of the members here carry more of an "arsenal" when going to shoot than the guy was carrying. I have had at least twice as many firearms and more ammo than they showed a few times, due to sighting in firearms and testing reloads etc. I haven't researched Oregon's firearm laws, but saw nothing that would be illegal in Indiana unless he was "illegal to posses firearms". I also carry a camo coverall in my van ~ used as a safety in winter in case of vehicle failure.

If there is not a lot more to the story than we are being told, Portland may be out a large settlement in a civil suit for false arrest!

He had a pistol with loaded mags within easy reach and no carry permit = misdemeanor.
Had loaded 100 round mag for ar in back = misdemeanor.

He also made furtive (my word) moves toward the pistol when told to keep his hands up.
