Speaking about how much the FFL dealers are collecting over this new law....
Before the background check law was passed in WA, I asked my local gun store owner if he was in favor or not. His reply was that he was in favor. He claimed that it was gonna make WA a "safer place" if all transfers had a background check.
Really? WA is a safer place because I want to purchase another firearm and I need to get another background check that'll cost me an additional $35? BTW, I also have a valid WA CCW.
The way I see it....
The gun store owner was looking out for his own interest, as it brought additional revenue to his business.
IMHO....
Law enforcement should be doing the background check(s) for FREE on private transfers. Especially since the voters want a safer state and think that running an additional background check on another purchase, will somehow make it so.
Aloha, Mark
