Usually you have to show a specific danger, such as being a business owner that carries large amounts of cash. In other words, you have to be in "more danger" than a "regular" person. I can't imagine that most judges, especially in relatively anti-gun areas, are going to consider the simple fact that you spend time in the state, no matter how much time, to put you in any specific danger.

Not saying I agree AT ALL, just saying.
That's probably true, but I think it also depends on the county. I never asked about the specifics, but I would guess because he works in Portland, he applied for his Oregon CHL in the same county he works in. Portland is probably one of the more anti-gun places in an otherwise relatively gun-friendly state (despite what you hear about the "left coast.") Odds are, he would have had better luck one county either to the east or west.
