Court of Appeals of Oregon February 9, 2000, 98-01-40848; CA A102784 (State v. Perry)

*344

DE MUNIZ, P. J.

Defendant appeals from a judgment of conviction for unlawful possession of a firearm. ORS 166.250(1). Defendant argues that there was insufficient evidence that the handgun he possessed was readily capable of use as a weapon and that, even if it was readily capable of use as a weapon, he falls within the “place of business” exception to the firearms possession statute.
