Title: King county firearm restriction boundaries?
Post by: JasonG on January 29, 2017, 02:21:46 PM: Hello again, I'm trying to figure out if muzzleloaders fall under king county firearm restrictions . The regs say centerfire, rimfire? Looking at the 454 unit. Anyone know? Thanks Jason

Nearly every King County no shooting area allows the discharge of firearms for hunting. Each individual area is different so must read the actual ordinance.

I don't think you phrased that right

12.68.040 Citizens may petition to use firearms in "no shooting" areas at certain times. In areas designated "no shooting" by ordinances, citizens may petition (according to the provisions of Section 12.68.010) to allow the use of firearms during lawful open hunting seasons, during stated periods of time as established by the Washington State Game Commission. (Ord. 4691 § 2, 1980).
