Ruger 10/22 Magpul backpacker in WA?

[Milsurper]

I was wanting to buy a Ruger 10/22 Magpul backpacker (with the threaded barrel) which is still legal in WA as far as I can tell.

If it is, does anyone know a good FFL in southwest WA that isn't afraid to transfer it? Some I've seen said no semi auto rifles at all.

IIRC the threaded barrel gets you into banned feature territory. I could be wrong.

Good luck...!!

I could be wrong, but I believe rimfire is exempt. If anyone will give you a straight answer from the perspective of someone potentially selling them, contact @Sporting Systems

Rimfire rifle is exempt. You can get a 10/22 with threaded barrel.

Order it from Davidson's Gungenie, and have it shipped to RW Pawn.

 

[Milsurper]

Yeah, I thought threaded barrels on rimfires were still ok

 

[User 1234]

Rimfire rifles yes. Rimfire pistols are subject to the new WA "assault weapon" laws.

When I checked with RW the other day, it was $20 to transfer, $18 wa state tax and $20 to hold for 10 days. Almost $60 to transfer a firearm, and they're one of the less expensive!
Check with MTS Enterprises. Joe MIGHT be able to save you a few bucks anyway. He's listed under local resources here. Works by appt only, but good people.

That's a private party transfer charge. It's a different set up if you ordered directly from Davidson's, gallery of guns. Davidsons is the distributor. RW is the retailer. You order from Davidson's website and it ships to RW. I'm pretty sure they still have to charge you the $18 state tax, as of January 1 this year. But there shouldn't be any $20 or $40 transfer fee. Because it's a retail sale. Not a private party transfer.

I ordered stuff from them all the time and have it shipped to RW. Davidson ships second day air. RW calls you when it comes in. And you pay for the gun. I've never seen any private party transfer fees added to my bill..

And relating directly to the question from the OP. I ordered a 10/22 that came with a threaded muzzle less than a month ago.

But that is good to know that there is another resource with Joe at MTS. Thanks for the heads up.

I have used Davidsons several times. When you look at a gun from them they offer you a choice of dealers in your area. Each choice will show you a break down on cost and the out the door cost so you can pick which dealer you want to use. GREAT little set up.

Yes, that was a private party transfer. If different when ordering through Davidsons, I humbly stand corrected.

We stock them. Shop local.

Very true. My apologies Sir.
Go with Sporting Systems, since they have them in stock.

Do you carry threaded barrels for a 10/22 I already own?

Sporting Systems is top drawer.
They are great supporters of our second amendment rights, as well as being one of the premier gun stores in the area.

Sorry, we do not. Too many HB1240 variables in play, but expect we will eventually carry them again.

Well take that law makers
While I love that someone is doing this as a poke in the eye to moronic laws I would be VERY leery of trying this with a can. If things did not line up perfect it would be a PITA to promptly damage a can that someone jumped through hoops and paid the money for. Still love the idea.
