Anyone else looking at what happened in California, and taking an extra step to "future-proof" your mags?  I went on every website I remember odering mags from, and printed out every receipt I could as proof of date purchased.  For ant type of mags I don't have any kind of receipt for, I bought a couple extra, just to have a receipt from before the ban date.  I hope it never comes to having to prove innocence, but I don't trust Washington State to protect my freedoms anymore.

Before this bill was passed it had prohibition plus a few lines of text requiring proof such as photographic evidence of ownership prior to law going into effect.

Both of those were removed and now its just a ban on sales. So theres NO requirement for proof. Zero.

Will that change in the future? Who knows. Im missing reciepts but I saved a bunch. I am however prepared to do the photograph/documentation thing if it ever comes up again.

But still, for right now we dont have to worry about it. Its always a good idea to save your receipts though.

I don't think it will ever get to that point, they will just amend the law to un-grandfather all old mags.

Short-term we’re screwed but I’m somewhat hopeful that the Supreme Court will hear Duncan v Bonta and put the issue to rest, hopefully in our favor.

12 - 25 round PMAGs for AR10
11 KUSA KP-9 30 rounders for a pistol I don’t have yet.
7 FDE 33rd Glock OEM 9mm
8 Magpul 35rd CZ Scorpion.

I’ve been placing a magazine order every payday for the last couple of months.

I’ll get a few more Scorpion 35’s and Glock 33’s and probably a drum or two for the Scorpion and 9mm PCC. I might also get a 12 pack of those cheap AC Unity MP-5 mags for the hell of it.

AFAIK, the 300 specific mags work better if you are using heavy subsonic weight projectiles.

BHA is awesome.

I have two more HKs I got from them and waiting for the paperwork to clear now.

Ordered 2 ea of D50 Pcc and MP5 drums. Thinking of getting a few more of each. I have more pmags than I know what to do with. Ordered stacks of the VP9 20’s since they fit so many HK guns.

If you’re in the Lacey area, Cash Northwest has smoke Lancers for $15 IIRC.  It’s one of those small shops that’s needs to get rid of their inventory.

This is as good a place as any for a CSB.

About 2011/2012? I was in a Sportsman Whorehouse and they had Lancer L5s for $8.99 on closeout, grabbed a dozen, when I checked out they gave me a $20 off $100 on your next visit.

I went back a few days later and the shelf was bare of the L5.  I asked the counter guy and he said they got in more and he went and brought out the then new L5AWM.  I had him beep it, came up $8.99

For the next week, buy 12, get coupon for 20 off, repeat, buy 12.

I think at the time I figured they netted down to about $7.36ea

In hindsight, they probably had a pricing error and marked the new mag with the old price, but in my defense, maybe $8.99 was the new price, the mag was new at the time.

Being retired, I still have friends at my old job and the main topic “what magazines are you buying” and up who has the “best deals” on Glock, Sig, AR or AK magazines.  Hell, I’ve even given a friend a couple of AK-74 and HK G3 magazines.  Plus, I’ll be clearing out some excess magazines as well later this week and post them on the State’s EE board.

Ferguson is way beyond a fucktard and I know I’m not the only true Washingtonian receiving weekly packages in the mail.  

This will not stop criminals from being criminals and sadly, they know it, but it’s one step closer to their goal of making Washington into another California.  Thugs are still going to shoot people for no reason, other than that they’re criminals. Being born and raised here, it’s sad to see my homeland slipping away, more and more, each and every year.

I’m waiting to see some fucking libtard at a local gun shop or at Sportsman’s Warehouse trying to buy a new 15rd magazine for his/her/its  Glock after July 1st, only to have that dumbass look on their face since the bullshit THEY supported has now bit him/her/it in the ass.

It's funny you mention Sportsman's Warehouse, when I was picking up my SP5 at the start of Covid as they are the only dealer who seems to get cool HK stuff in stock and not try to rob me for it, I had a discussion with a guy who seemed to take offense that I said "I hadn't seen lines like this at gunshops since Obama got elected". He was also surprised they made pistols as large as the SP5.

The first time I saw a hi-point in person was at Sportman's. Dang those things are huge. I just looked up the SP5. I did not expect Sportman's to carry a $3,500 firearm

It totally bums me out seeing standard capacity mags on the wall that will soon no longer be there. So stupid. Feel bad for all of the younger people trying to get into firearms after.

No I’m just not going to tell them shit.

I DID learn though that when you buy Polish AK mags from Atlantic, they send them in little baggies with a big green DATE OF ACQUISITION sticker on the side with the date i paid for them printed on it, so I’ll probably keep the baggies around for a rainy day. The rest of my stuff? They can get fucked.


Holy crap tho. I went ham on those mags.

I wasn’t even in the market for mags and now have enough new ones for an infantry platoon. And a new AK, and a new Glock. And a new suppressor waiting on a stamp. And a bunch of ammo on the way.

Got a drum mag and some BX25's for my 10/22 on the way too. Other stuff I've gotten is a LOT of AR mags, a few AR10 mags, a ton of Glock mags, a few Colt style AR9 mags, and even 10 Bren mags for an as yet undone Bren Semi Auto kit, just in case.
