Hi all, work might be taking me up to washington state. I was wondering if some of you WA guys could chime in and give me a run down of the gun laws.
1) Can I have and use my suppressors there? 2) Can I have and use my SBR there? 3) What about switchblades and OTF knives? Im a LEO btw, Im not sure if that makes any difference in the laws. These are all personally owned, not for work. Thanks |

SBR's are still illegal in Washington 3. As far as I understand you can't have auto knives there but there was some confusion if that was statewide or just in Seattle. Like the poster above me said you'd get better answers in the Washington HTF. |

"machine gun" and SBR's are grandfathered, legal if owned prior to July 1, 1994. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=9.41.190 There is also a LE/mil exemption in the context of official duty, but personally owned firearms generally won't qualify. |
