HB Reavis is a real estate developer company active mainly in Slovakia, Poland, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Hungary and Germany. The company is active both in development of new projects and asset management of existing portfolio.
I have a semi auto rifle I bought right before the ban here in WA. I’ve yet to shoot it and it’s brand new in the box and I’ve come to realize it was a bit of a panic buy. I never use it, I’m wanting to sell it. I know that HB 1240 states that there can be no importing, or buying of banned...
Typical caveats apply in that this was created by a gun club, and was created at a point in time based on their understanding of HB1240 (ie., updates to WA State laws may not be represented in this decision tree).
All,
Starting this thread to track the status of injunctions across all cases for HB 1240.
Silent Majority Foundation (SMF) Lawsuit
There was an injunction hearing at 2:30 PM today in Grant County.
It appears per W. Kirk’s twitter, that the case filed by SMF is now being moved from GRANT...
I only see LE agencies and official use for military and police. I don’t see verbiage that cops can still buy AW for personal use in WA?

Will HB 1240 increase demand for in store purchases of prohibited rifle parts at Oregon stores?
I am guessing the lack of a sales tax was not incentive enough to justify higher in store prices compared to online deals? If fewer online suppliers are willing to ship parts to WA, maybe demand will...

Has anyone checked out the amendments on HB 1240? This most recent one appears to remove the emergency clause. Hmmmmmm. Im no lawyer but appears to me that they are relying off the 9th circuit to make this law “Bruen proof”- maybe I am misunderstanding
Just in...
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Thank you for your thoughts regarding firearm bills.
Given your previous interest in these bills, I wanted to take a moment to alert you that HB 1240 and HB 1143 are on the run list to be voted on the House Floor in the next 2 days! We are working hard...
Time to pose another interesting question… Ive been “stocking up” to hold me over until I move out of state. But be it that many of these guns are semi automatic- obtaining them can be a process. I recently purchased an AK rifle. It is being shipped from TX and is due here next Thursday. I will...
I have been commenting on the bills and contacting my reps frequently- but as many here know- HB 1240 in WA left committee today- now I plan on going back to my home of TX by 2024 or 2025 at the latest- but want to at least buy something to hold me over for the next two years. Question is, what...
