The Gun - Willamette Week

Willamette Week The need for strong, independent local journalism is more urgent than ever. Please support the city we love by joining Friends of Willamette Week. The Gun Updated April 10 at 11:28 PM It’s 9:50 on a Wednesday night, in the Safeway parking lot on Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. I’m looking into the passenger-side window of a gray Chevy Tahoe, with $160 in my fist. In the back seat lies a green pillowcase. Inside that pillowcase is a loaded 9 mm handgun. I want that gun. I’m firearms shopping in Northeast Portland not out of self-defense or vigilante delusions. I want to find out how easy it is to buy a gun on the streets. I’ve been at it for less than three hours, and now I could be moments away from getting one.
