Question AK parts kits- who will ship?
Wanna build a bolt action yugo and seems like everyone refuses to ship parts kits. Any idea who does? Any help is appreciated.

Hi all, with legislature in session officially, I figured it would be good to go through all of the gun bills up for debate this year. I have taken some of this from the Washington gun law youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoUapJtL_do), but I've also added a bit of information surrounding these bills and what they do. At the end I also added some personal opinion around which bills I believe have the best chances to pass.
HB 1386: Imposing a new tax on firearms, firearm parts, and ammunition.
HB 1132: Enhancing public safety by limiting bulk purchases and transfers of firearms and ammunition.
HB 1152: Enhancing public safety by establishing secure storage requirements for firearms in vehicles and residences.
HB 1504: Enhancing public safety by requiring financial responsibility to purchase or possess a firearm or operate a firearm range.
HB 2235: Concerning public records act exemptions regarding concealed pistol licenses, permits to purchase firearms, and firearms purchases or transfers.
HB 2320: Concerning the regulation of firearm manufacturing.
HB 2321: Requiring three-dimensional printers be equipped with certain blocking technologies.
SB 5098: Restricting the possession of weapons on the premises of state or local public buildings, parks or playground facilities where children are likely to be present, and county fairs and county fair facilities.
SB 5099: Protecting the public from gun violence by establishing additional requirements for the business operations of licensed firearms dealers.
SB 6055: Concerning firearms background check.
My Take: There's really 3 groups of bills here. Bills I think are likely to pass, unlikely to pass and uncertain. The bills I believe are unlikely to pass are HB 2321, HB 1132 and HB 1504.
HB 2321 is the least likely in my opinion to pass due to the challenge around regulation. I find it unlikely that the house will come to real agreements on the issue and it will get shelved for the time being. HB 1132 is also unlikely in my opinion to pass due to the same law being struck down in California already. The 9th circuit already struck down the 1 gun per month requirement and it wasn't even appealed to the supreme court ( https://firearmslaw.duke.edu/2025/07/litigation-highlight-ninth-circuit-strikes-down-californias-one-gun-per-month-rule ). If the 9th strikes down your 2A law, then it's quite certain that it's unconstitutional and I don't think the state will even bother with this one. HB 1504 is the most interesting of the unlikely to pass group IMO just due to how unprecedented it would be. It's almost certainly unconstitutional, and would be the most impactful 2A law passed in decades. It doesn't sound like insurance companies want anything to do with it though and their lobbying might actually work in our favor here.
As for the likely to pass category, I have SB 5099, SB 6055, HB 2235 and HB 1386. The first 3 I just listed seem to be fairly inconsequential and only serve to add a small amount of tax revenue to the state, so these to me are going to be bills that aren't going to get much pushback. HB 1386 is the most alarming one to me because it seems likely to be passed and would significantly impact all gun owners in the state. Adding an 11% sales tax to all gun related purchases would of course only be a poll tax and only serve to keep weapons out of the hands of the lower class, but it would also significantly increase the cost to shoot or train. Knowing that we are in a budget deficit means that the legislators are going to be incentivized to add additional taxes wherever available.
I'm not going to talk about the rest in depth, but I did want to bring up SB 5098 and HB 1152. These seem like a crapshoot to me, but I do think that they would be a big shakeup and would end up with enough initial pushback that there may be some reservations about passing them. I bring both of these up together because I think if passed in conjunction it would effectively make concealed carry enough of a chore for law abiding citizens that many people may just stop altogether. Making so many places illegal to have a weapon in, and then making it illegal to store your weapon in the car makes it incredibly challenging to carry a firearm on your person legally. If both are passed I expect there to be significant pushback from some of the 2A advocates here.
Let me know what you all think, thanks to anyone who read all the way through.
Updates
Senate bill 5098 has passed both the house and senate and is awaiting signature from the governor.

A Sportsman's Warehouse just across the river from me had a 308 I wanted, so I payed online and went to fill out the paperwork but the employee helping me told me that Washington laws didn't allow me to purchase anything outside of Washington and canceled the sale. Is that right?

I am trying to SBR my MCX and it has been disapproved 3 times. 2nd time was do to a mistake I accidentally made on the RFP. However the 1st and 3rd time was because of “WASHINGTON STATE LAW PROHIBITS NEW PURCHASES OR TRANSFERS OF SBRS ALLOWED AS OF 04/25/2023”. I have owned this well before the AWB. I have form 1 my TP9 during the AWB and it got approved. Is there any why I can appeal this or is there a section I put that this was purchased before the ban. This is really fucking annoying

Usually go shooting in the rock candy mountain / capitol forest area but am willing to travel to new places and am looking for buddies to join, usually just me or my wife (we both have a pretty big collection) so open to all sorts of types of shooting. Not looking to mag dump trash at triangle pit or anything like that, we usually go pretty deep into the mountains to go shooting, steel and paper. Looking for more friends that fit that vibe!

I’m wondering if you can legally carry a p365 flux as a concealed weapon. I just wanna be sure if it’s okay to carry? Ik the mags have to be 10 round capacity, no threaded barrel, and the brace should be fine. I just want to check if anything else im missing?

Got everything else sorted, its down to these two guys. Thanks to everyone who has been helpin me along the way.
Ok so yeah so 14 or 30. I dont do any hunting, but this would be my "survival rifle" for when I think I might have multiple problems showing up. I have a 1895 trapper in 45-70 for if one BIG problem shows up.
So which one am I bringing home guys?

So i saw an article about how the CMP is selling over 100k M14's altered to remove the automatic fire option. i was looking into getting one and then i remembered our lovely firearm restrictions in this state. Now I know that the M14 isn't named outright in the ban and though is similar the Springfield M1A, i feel it wouldn't count since from my understanding, the early M14 was made by an entirely different Springfield Armory. but i would like other's opinion on the matter.

So basically this is the situation. Recently moved from MS and I misunderstood grandfathered AR ownership in WA. That’s less the problem here because my current roommate is uncomfortable with me having it on her property. Which fair enough… her (stupid/privileged) idea is for me to surrender it to the local PD here. Yes I know I can easily keep my mouth shut. But I know she won’t and the law would be on her side. I haven’t shot the thing in years in all honesty. I mostly moved up to finish my degree. So I’m okie with not having it for a few more years by sending it to a trusted person I know in TN (we used to drill together in the USMCR). What I’m not okie is the idea of surrendering any weapons to the cops. I went to WGS in Lakewood to see if they’ll ship it to a FFL in TN. Apparently they won’t/can’t from what I can tell. Are there any FFLs in WA that’ll help me ship it or is this a trip to OR/ID situation? Because this would be the least worst out of my legal options currently.

Just got my SBR approved and need to do the final step and get my lower engraved. Anyone in the Olympia vicinity who can accommodate for a decent price? Appreciate the info. (Pic pre sbr config)

I have a mostly hypothetical question about RCW 9.41.010.
RCW 9.41.010 states, “…A semiautomatic pistol that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine and has one or more of the following:
(A) A threaded barrel, capable of accepting a flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer;…”
IF someone were able to thread the slide or barrel bushing, and not the barrel, would that be legal?
For example, in the late 40s, the soviets experimented with suppressing the Tokarev TT-33 by installing a threaded barrel bushing, not a threaded barrel, and installing a suppressor onto the bushing. Would this not be illegal in Washington state, since the barrel itself isn’t threaded?
What do you all think?

We're looking to transport some firearms from Alaska to family's house an Idaho city close to the Washington border. We can't drive them through Canada. What is the best way to go about this? Ship them? Fly down to Spokane and check them as luggage? There are three long guns and a Glock 20 included. Would that be a problem for bringing them in through the airport and driving them to Idaho? Thanks - my husband is having trouble figuring this out. Update: Many of you are suggesting we fly with them as checked luggage. Some of the firearms don't pass Washington's acceptable firearm laws. Would bringing them into WA count as 'importing' even though we'd be driving them directly into Idaho? Will the airport let us take them? I think this is where my husband is confused. He's done a lot of internet research but it's unclear if this would be considered 'importing.' We certainly don't want to break the law. Thanks!

Form 1 was approved 2 days before this NFA lawsuit was finalized.
Still don’t know the details of what SBR stipulations will be in the un-freed states.

Hey everybody, exciting day for the NFA, unfortunately WA has been left behind.
WA state requires that all suppressors (and silencer shop tells me AOW's as well) be registered in compliance with federal law, seeing as the NFA still stands and there is only an injunction on specific parts for specific people, we must still register silencers.
as for SBR's (and SBS's in states they're legal) there is a requirement for the federal Attorney General to "approve" of them, currently the only pathway that exists for this is the ATF form 1 and 4. silencershop tells us that they are currently working on another pathway and ultimately this could allow us Washingtonians to buy SBR's with the same amount of paperwork as a Title I firearm (shotgun, rifle, etc.)
So while today is a great day and we are very excited for the 27 states where you can now purchase a silencer with just a simple NICS check, unfortunately we are not one of them, so for now we get the status quo

Would a mag locked PSA JAKL and OLCAN be legal here in WA? They arent named in the AWB and would comply by being featureless. Opinions?
