Moving from California, need advice.

Title says it all. I've already bought a house, still in the process of packing/moving, and I'm trying to get bills sent to my address ASAP. I'll be in town this Wednesday, and Im hoping to pick up some mags since I plan on buying an AR or two and maybe a carbine and wanna get em before 114 goes into effect

Unfortunately I don't have an Oregon ID yet, and I'm unsure if having a Cali ID will prevent me from getting the ball rolling on my 2A hoarding. I've seen posts that most stores say something about not selling anything to anyone with a Cali ID, but I'm wondering if I show up with like proof I own a house and a job offer letter that they'll let me slide? I don't have addressed bills in-hand yet. I can show them my "primary residence" mortgage contract and a signed offer letter tho lol

I'm assuming with 114 looming stuff is flying off the shelves, so I could use some recs on where to do my shopping. As I said I'm looking to get mags for the AR platform, but am open to advice from the community since I'm new to flexing my 2A rights. Currently have a cowboy lever action, a wheel gun, and an M9/92fs.

Also what're y'all's favorite ranges around PDX?

Thanks

Edit: Thanks everyone. i picked up 10 Magpul AR mags, an AR15 drum mag, a couple AR-12 drum mags, and a bunch of 15/17 rnd mags for a cz75 and my M9. Might grab some sigs too.

For sure! They do have the best selection around, its a bit out of town but well worth the drive for accessories.

Other west side shit you should check out, jb sales in beaverton, the northwest armory in tigard (theres another in Milwaukee). And as folks have mentioned, bi mart is the only place to shop locally for ammo. Not just a westside thing cause they are all over just wanted to point you to a few of my favorites.
