So does the "assault weapon ban" just ban semi automatic rifles or does it ban all semi-auto firearms including handguns? Does it ban parts?
Am I no longer going to be able to sell items here?
The legislature finds that assault weapons are not commonly used in self-defense and that any proliferation is not the result of the assault weapon being well-suited for self-defense, hunting, or sporting purposes. Rather, increased sales are the result of the gun industry's concerted efforts to sell more guns to a civilian market. The legislature finds that the gun industry has specifically marketed these weapons as "tactical," "hyper masculine," and "military style" in manner that overtly appeals to troubled young men intent on becoming the next mass shooter. The legislature intends to limit the prospective sale of assault weapons, while allowing existing legal owners to retain the assault weapons they currently own.
An assailant with an assault weapon can hurt and kill twice the number of people than an assailant with a handgun or nonassault rifle. This is because the additional features of an assault weapon are not "merely cosmetic"; rather, these are features that allow shooters to fire large numbers of rounds quickly.
very well said and many many people feel the same wayDon't know, increasingly don't care. Can't describe the situation any different than what an enemy would seek to do, and why would I follow the path an enemy had pushed me to go.
Clearly they don't care about the constitution, and only their agenda. They'd just as soon sick the police on me with the same guns they claim aren't fit for civilian ownership, while they sit in buildings guarded by guns.
Better it boil over already than continue down the path of slow, but perpetual decay.
And smuggle the mags in from Mexico. I hear it's wide open.Guess I will go buy my AK now while I can
I'm curious about this as wellFrom what I read, it sounds like they won't allow you to buy rifle parts anymore either?
From a roughly 3 min skim of the law posted in a post above it looks to me like any pistol with a threaded barrel, any aK, ar, Galil, ar-180, mp5 type, ptr 91 pistol will be banned, excluding rimfire. Also bans sbrs or pistols with the other items shown below.So does the "assault weapon ban" just ban semi automatic rifles or does it ban all semi-auto firearms including handguns? Does it ban parts?

FFL liability law will put a fork in that as well.The problem will be if parts sellers decide not to ship to WA unless it's to a gunsmithFFL.
I think you are right. Sucks. Communist bastards.It will result in any WA resident with a pending Form 1 for their braced pistol being denied tax stamp.
Probably a good idea to invest in some lower parts kits for future maintenance and repairs.The proposed law prohibits "manufacture", import/distribute/transfer/sale.
"Assembly" is only in the definition section, as is constructive possession.
Assembly is not specifically banned, assuming you already have a grandfathered serialized frame, nor is constructive possession or acquisition on nonserialized parts.
I believe they are attempting to imply that 80% sale/purchase will not be allowed, but does not specifically say you cannot acquire parts.
