Wait time in Washington for Suppressor...

[Nwcid]

I have been thinking of getting one for my AR, been getting conflicting info , some say I can own one in Washington, but cant use it in Washington, Coctalier can give me the true info , Thanks

Here are all the WA firearms laws, KNOW them, Chapter 9.41 RCW: FIREARMS AND DANGEROUS WEAPONS

Here is the specific one that deals with your question, RCW 9.41.250: Dangerous weapons ? Penalty.

They have never been illegal to own. Up until 2011 there was poor wording in the law that kinda made them illegal to use........

Wonder if the govt "shutdown" includes the NFA branch people - hope it doesn't put those waiting for a tax stamp on an indefinite hold.

It does (put us on hold.)

Right now I'm expecting to see a wait time of about a year for mine.

Bummer, I was wondering that a couple days ago.

Do the checks still get cashed right away?

Yes of course they do.

Actually it depends on whether or not they lose your stuff in their pile of crap. I sent in a check in Jan, and they didn't cash it until mid March when I emailed them asking if they were processing my app. Pretty sure they left it under a pile of old cheeseburgers or something.

Oh man, that sucks.

Crossroads Arms and Brightwater Ventures both sell suppressors and are both forum supporters. There's one or two other stores around that do it now too.

We also sell suppressors and other NFA items at Southwest Washington Surplus:

And be careful where you "use" it in WA state. There is conflicting info on whether or not LEO/Military types can use them on their "job-related" ranges or not. The RCW's though seem to be pretty clear that they cannot be used in the state PERIOD.

It says you can use them if legally owned.

Nice choices. I have that M&P and I just bought a Spectre II so I'll see that sometime next year. I'm just hoping my SS Sparrow gets it's stamp soon. Then I can join the club.

i have the same. bought it because its a pre threaded barrel, just need the adaptor. downside is you can't take the slide off without taking the adaptor off. also not the most accurate 22lr pistol the world.

bit it runs great with an aac element 2
