I just moved to the Seattle area, so if they have a problem with it, tough.
The gun laws are here are nice! No waiting period....Shall issue for concealed carry. You feel like a free American when going into a gun shop.

I'm originally from the Yakima Valley. WA is much better for guns than CA, although the Seattle voting block would like to change that.Comment

Drifter001, just noticed your "introduction" on the NWFA site. I'm on the fast track to Oregon myself and just signed up an account on there as well.
I have a father in law in Washington, he just laughs when we tell him about CA laws. So I think you're going to enjoy the freedom up there. He kept asking over and over "and why don't you have a ccw permit"? Guess he couldn't understand the concept of a "maybe issue state"."I declare to you that woman must not depend upon the protection of man, but must be taught to protect herself, and there I take my stand." --Susan B.

In Washington you can't have MG's, SBR's or SBS's but you can have AOW's and silencers/suppressors.
They recently changed the law to actually allow you to USE silencers/suppressors in the state too. It used to be you could own them and buy them in WA, but you couldn't actually use one, so all my WA buddies would drive to Oregon for that.
But if you're talking about Title 1 firearms, pretty much anything goes. They even have the "gun show loophole" there
Please read the Calguns Wiki
Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

I live just north of Bremerton, in Silverdale. I really like it! The nearest shooting range is 6 miles away. Some part's of bremerton aren't the nicest, especially by the port and shipyards. Just old and run down. But overall, kitsap county is a really nice place to live. If your outdoorsy, WA. and the Seattle area is the place to be.
