HB 1240 "Assault Weapons Ban" Passes House

[HighCountryHunter88]

So in reading the bill and there’s talk about threaded barrels and muzzle brakes. Now am I reading that as only band as parts of semi automatic weapons, or no threaded barrels, are muzzle brakes for anything like bolt guns?

As I read it only semi auto not bolt guns

So how will a company decipher whether your buying a break or a suppressor for a bolt gun or semi auto?

It appears that if this law is passed and stands you have to prove how/when you acquired all your stuff.

It was t that long ago we were buying guns off tailgate’s,how they going to account for those?

How can they require records for firearms that were purchased years before the law?

And it shows that there was no faith in previous legislation by antis, other than gauging how quickly they could implement the next piece.  (As if anybody on here really had a doubt.)  I don't think the ink is dry enough on the last one that raised the age to 21 and required a special course, to determine in data for antis if it was working.  Yet they duped enough people into thinking it would, and now are going another step.  What's the next one going to be in 2024 (main election year)?

Just saw a politician stating that it is a "step by step process".
They are not done stripping law abiding citizens of the ability to protect themselves.

I've said it before.  Death by 1,000 cuts.  People don't care about some of the cuts that don't affect them, til slice by slice one finally catches them and its too late.

If you purchase online today and it takes 2 weeks to deliver to ffl
Is it still considered legal ?
Asking for a friend

It hasn't passed the senate yet and it may not. If you're sitting on the fence about it though, better start working on it.

Not on the fence anymore.  Hoping it doesn't pass.  Hoping my CC takes a hit and transfer is made in time.

Are you sure the 10-22 is considered an assault weapon under this? I thought it is centerfire rifles?

Washington doesn't have a rimfire exemption in its definition like other states.

The 10-22 is a Squirrel Assault Doom Rifle

What is the timeline people are thinking here?  I remember 1619 or whatever it was had a few months between passing and implementation of the law so business could get their ducks in a row.  I can't imagine them passing this and boom next day its law and every FFL in the state now has inventory they can't sell.  Also, any chance this gets challenged legally and bogged down in court? 

This state is ass backwards

This law takes affect as soon as the governor signs it.

Why would it need an exemption? The 10/22 doesn’t meet any of the criteria of banned guns. Reference my post on page 6.

The 10-22 is an assault rifle, not an assault weapon. Not yet anyway.

So it is not effectively banned by HB 1240 in its current form.

Let’s not forget that even accessories can be classified as “assault weapons” under this law. And your grand kids won’t be able to inherit your guns from your kids.
