After passing I-1639, is Washington State part of the Commie list?

May as well be. ANYTHING semi-auto in any caliber, be it rifle, shotgun and yes, even pistol is considered an assault weapon and can't be purchased or possessed by anyone under age 21. You have to take a class to be able to buy anything semi-auto after I forget which day in July this year when it goes into full effect. Anything you buy after that date that qualifies as an assault weapon under the new law is registered with the state, and there's safe storage requirements that they can enforce by inspection. It's bad news bears. Between 549 a few years ago which outlawed private sales and 1639, we're well on our way to California's level of BS. There's been all kinds of stuff on the local news about how this is only the beginning and the state legislature is set to fill in the gaps that the horrible initiatives have left in the commie agenda.

I may be confused, but it sounds like you may even have surpassed CA craziness with that. I haven’t read the fine print on the latest raft of garbage from Sacramento, but certainly a year ago were my son or daughter 18 I could give them a pistol or rifle (to include a “featureless” AR). They’d have been able to buy semiautomatic long guns (as long as they weren’t “assault weapons”), but that is no longer. I’ll read the fine print before the eldest turns eighteen next year...

Too bad my mom isn't a member. We just got her moved out of New Jersey, thank Heaven, and we've discussed getting her a gun since she lives in a first floor condo now.

I escaped Oregon in 2013 (for the second time due to post military life), but I'm glad to see it added to your list. It has truly become an enemy state.

Hope you have a lot more p228s Smile

We just might have, but I didn’t want to definitely state it since I’m not read up on California laws, especially the recent changes. I do know Washington state legislature and the majority of folks in the western counties want to outdo California, and that’s no exaggeration. My wife and I have been plotting our escape since last November when 1639 passed. It will only get worse from here out.

I couldn’t believe that it passed. I was stunned. The thing that miffed me the most was giving up your HIPAA rights in order to purchase.

Two questions:

1. Beancooker brings up a good point at the top of this page — is WA state now a commie state? One of the main reasons I am looking to potentially flee this state is due to the awful gun reform BS we’ve been dealing with

2. Is this offer still on the table?

I have the same question.

I escaped from CA with my wife and kids back in July 2018, and just finalized my full time move up to WA. A 228 would be a great escape gift, but WA is turning into the same thing for 2A folks.

Personally, I believe that Washington has surpassed California in how they are destroying your rights. The classification of assault weapon, the surrendering your HIPAA rights, and the fact they are now putting together a bill to ban magazines with more than 10 round capacity, and ban assault weapons “which are defined as semi-automatic guns that contain at least one military-style feature”.

I’m so happy I made it out of Washington and down to the great state of Arizona. It’s a breath of fresh air.

The only problem with Arizona, is that so many of the defectors from California are arriving here and trying to turn this great state into the shithole they just defected from.

12131.. you’re a phenomenal member here for what you do / contribute and this is a amazing offer.

I have learned so much through veteran contributors like yourself over the years, and I cannot thank you along with this community enough.

I’ve escaped my childhood commie state last June.

Not sure if I qualify for this, but as I unpack my gear .. I have quite a few Sig parts and gear that I’ll pay it forward to the community and post them up shortly for free.

Just wanted to say thanks to you and everyone over the years for all the knowledge.

Outstanding Karma but I moved about 44 years too soon and CT wasn't so much a commie state back then.
A thanks anyway to 12131, and to give a little more incentive to those on the fence. A few more reasons, if you are in the northeast, get out anyway you can. The cost of living is lower here, taxes generally much lower, weather much better, cars last longer due to better weather and less potholes, jobs, people are more friendly plus you can own almost anything and as much as you want.
Once you take the plunge you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner. Just try to stay out of the big cities. They seem to attract some of the same people you were trying to get away from.

This is wonderful, I will email you the requirements per your first post once I’m home in a few days, does that work?

Please confirm these items are what you’d need:
-copy of your old state's license, your new state's license, and a copy of your FFL in your new free state, for verification purpose

Thank you sir

Incredible karma! I fled CA on July 13th of 2018 to AZ and am still there now. Is there an official "Statute of Limitations" or am I eligible?
