No, generally speaking, a felon cannot (legally) buy a handgun anywhere in the United States.
The correct answer to this question is yes with the following caveat. Oregon and most other states have a process where by a person convicted of a felony can have firearms rights restored. You must have your civil rights restored first by the state in which you were convicted of a felony. Now there is some convoluted stuff that goes on with respect to the federal firearms disabilities...I will try to explain.
Federally you are barred from any firearm rights if you were convicted of a federal felony or were convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence (Lautenberg Amendment circa 1994). Federal firearm rights restoration require the BATF to review and grant, however congress removed the funding for restoration reviews. A presidential pardon would automatically restore all rights taken as a result of a federal conviction. You cannot get a presidential pardon for a state conviction.
If the state does not take away your rights upon a conviction then they cannot restore your rights. In other words something cannot be restored if it was not taken away, This is where it becomes convoluted. Federal law says it is unlawful for any person convicted in any court of a crime that can be punished by a term of incarceration for a term greater than 1 year, Does not say you have to be incarcerated, just that the sentence for the crime can be greater than 1 year. That would cover all felonies. However the federal government does not view a person as violating a federal firearm law of possession by a felon if the state where the predicate conviction occurred has restored your civil rights, the right to vote, the right to serve on a jury, and the right to hold public office. Some states include the right to be a notary public and places no explicit restrictions on your right to possess a firearm. Many states have a separate process whereby the state gives you permission to own, purchase, possess, and sell a firearm that is lawful under state laws. That means handguns and long guns. If the state says no to hand guns but yes to long guns the federal law stills views you as being a prohibited person for any firearm...so make sure that any state restoration does not place limits on what you can possess in the way of a firearm.
Some states bar certain criminals from ever possessing a firearm. Google the rules of your own state to see what the process is for restoration of all rights. If you need a lawyer to assist you, do it. Your rights are worth more than your pride. After you have your rights restored your pride will soon follow. If you have had your rights taken away by an action you took you hopefully have begun to understand just how precious those rights are.
Clearly convicted felons are not all bad people. It is not that you made a mistake or experienced some youthful exuberance. Admit it to yourself, the person that you are asking forgiveness from (your governor, the sheriff, and possibly the courts) that what you did was commit a crime...not make a mistake. Everyone commits some sort of crime everyday..."jaywalking". Need I go on. View your own conduct with clarity and convince others why you should have your civil rights restored...do not demand you have your civil rights restored. Many people think that if they are rights they cannot be taken away. That is simply false. Our Declaration of Independence talks about 3 inalienable rights, the Right to Life (not if you have been sentenced to death), the Right to Liberty (not if you have been sentenced to jail or prison), and the pursuit of happiness. You can truly pursue happiness if the other aforementioned rights are still available.

How did the US gain control of Texas California the American southwest and the Oregon territory?
The United States never had to fight a war to gain control of Texas and other southwest territories, such as the California territory. Texas was annexed in a time of peace in 1845 by the US; however, this provoked anger from the Mexican government which still did not recognize the independence of the Republic of Texas, and claimed it as still their own territory, albeit a "troublesome one." As a result of the US annexation of Texas, the Mexican-American War broke out.
What is the average temperature for summer in Oregon?
Summers in Portland are great because they are the only time of year that is consistently sunny. Compared to other parts of the country, Oregon has very mild summers. The summer temps are usually in the 70s-80s during the day and it gets cool at night. There are usually a couple of hot spells during the summer where the temperature is in the 90-100 range, usually in July or August. Those two months are also the two driest months of the year, with rain falling only a few days during these months. June is a little cooler and wetter with temps in the 60-70 range. But by far the best thing about summers in Oregon is that there is NO HUMIDITY.
