Support

Short description:

The public hearing is cancelled and the bill is dead. SB 396 is the second time in three years that Oregon has killed a bill that would ban undetectable and/or untraceable guns.

Three dimensional printing (also called additive manufacturing) allows criminals and terrorists to make firearms that do not have a serial number, thereby rendering a firearm untraceable to law enforcement. The process also allows criminals and terrorists to make firearms without mechanism (called a security exemplar), thereby rendering a firearm undetectable by metal detectors.

Campaign URL:

Bill status:

House Judiciary Committee

CO position:

Neutral

Short description:

Ceasefire Oregon is neutral on HB 4005. We are encouraged that the legislature wishes to address the issue of unsecured guns and we recommend additional measures that research shows to be effective at increasing rates of gun storage, reducing gunshot death and injury, and addressing gun trafficking. Scroll to the bottom of this page for related studies.

Please contact your legislator and ask that HB 4005 be amended to include provisions that will make this bill a strong, effective law that will reduce gun violence.
