Topping the list of beneficiaries will likely be Oregon Rep. Les AuCoin, who may make a run for the Senate in 1992. AuCoin voted for the Brady bill after previously opposing it. He expects the anti-Brady National Rifle Association to target him for “lying” to voters because of his previous stance. AuCoin, a Democrat, would run against GOP Sen. Bob Packwood, who hasn’t announced his views on the Brady bill.
