Washington Threaded Barrel Question

[monkeybutler]

The OP said "If I had a handgun for sale, with both a non threaded, and threaded barrel, I am understanding the law correctly in Washington that I cannot sell the pistol with the threaded barrel installed?(Because it is an assault weapon)"

I so far listened to the first few minutes of the video and respect that Gun-Law guy a lot, but he's talking about AR (rifles/pistols) vid is titled "So, What's the Deal With AR Part in Washington State Now?" The vid refers to RCW 9.41.010 which lists the "so-called" assault weapons, all rifles, or semi-auto pistol versions with a magazine well, not part of the grip (as in a handgun).

Wouldn't that be apples to oranges, handguns vs. AR whether rifle or AR pistol?
p.s. 35 yr. resident of WA. retired recently to OR.

It is all vague technicalities. But pistols with threaded barrels are now assault weapons or whatever they are being called. There is a separate section of the law that deals with pistols. It sounds like they based it off the features of something like a TARD—9, er, TEC-9. Barrel shround, threaded barrel, wahtever else.

Par for the course. So often when these kind of laws are written they are written by people who would not know which end of a gun the bullet comes out of.

These laws are written by US Gun-Control Inc. then remanded to progressive AGs and legislatures.
