Hello fam,

Currently own a Colt AR15A4. I have most of the additional parts like in the pic, and would like to do something similar for the launcher. As for the 37mm launcher vs the 40mm, do I need a tax stamp per munition for 40mm vs 37mm? Would you consider 37mm over 40mm and why?

Thanks in advance everyone!

Form 1 approved on the bog. Absolutely love shooting this thing. Plus it keeps me from burning through my 556 stash.

I was hoping someone could help me understand my options. I set up a trust back when the ATF went through the whole pistol versus SBR debacle, and got approved for 2 SBRs through the amnesty program at the time.

Now I'd like to get suppressors via the silencer shop. Do I need to stop by the LGS Long Shot in Yelm and show them my Trust paperwork? Or do I upload it to SS's dashboard somewhere? Or do I just buy SS's single shot trust for the new suppressors?

Myself and a few friends have identified a very large and remote private property that we want to turn into a membership-based gun club, but possibly open to the public during the week. The property is located 30 minutes outside of Olympia in a more 2A friendly locale. Memberships would be transferable, like at a country club.

Our initial plan includes building a lodge with snack bar and FFL/shop, several covered outdoor pistol ranges, trap range, and a 100-400m rifle range. Initial cost $900k, using pre-fab/modular structures.

Eventually we want to build an indoor pistol range with automatic target returns ($1m), a shoot house ($300k), and a dorm for overnight stays ($2m). We eventually want to attract/host classes and training for interested individuals and LE/SF… some of us have deep connections to those communities (one was even an instructor for those communities).

The question is though: is there interest and what would YOU pay for a membership? We’re looking at like a $2000 buy in, 500 member max, with $500ish annual dues thereafter. Or maybe a higher buy-in ($5k) and dues with fewer members (200) to avoid overcrowding?

What are your thoughts? Trying to gauge market interest before we make any offers or obligations.

Anyone do a decent barrel port on my beretta somewhat near Olympia? Longshot said they were months out, and prefer not to send it out if I don’t have to.

A lot of FFLs don't list guns they have for sale, so is there any efficient way to search for some place that has this gun in stock for a decent price? Seattle area.

Looking to get a stainless steel pistol nitrided/melonited/QPQ’d. My usual gunsmith doesn’t do that and doesn’t know anyone that does. Anyone got a lead, preferably between JBLM and Chehalis?

Trying to replace an AR hand guard, but don’t have a vice or a block and can’t ugga it without (I’ve tried)

Anyone in the Seattle area have a set up they’d let me borrow or willing to do a quick swap for me for a beer? Seems a bit silly to wait for a gunsmith and pay heavily for one barrel nut.

Have been looking at suppressing a bolt gun in 300 blackout and wondering if anyone has recs on a good shop to assist with paper/prints/transfer etc?

Silencershop lists a few and Gun Nation is fairly close to me. Anyone have thoughts or done one with them?

Road to the place I've been going to is closed. I do not drive a truck. I have a little 4 door sedan. Anywhere north of Seattle I can get to?

Anyone know if Sultan basin pit still open? Planning to go tomorrow. Last time I was there like two years ago. Thanks.

I am gifting a gun to my son. Do I still have to do all the transfer paperwork and fees? New to this.

Switched phones recently and lost my pins of some good spots I had saved. It's been too long for me to remember. Looking to stretch some .308 legs and wanted to see if anyone had some spots. Not looking to get too crazy and start rubbing branches against the truck, need some large access roads to fit a 1500 through without beating it up

About a month ago I dropped off two guns at my local FFL for consignment, Glock 19 Gen 5 and Glock 19 Gen 3 parts kit build. The guy said they charge a 20% consignment fee and that it should sell within the weekend. I came back about a week later to confirm the sales prices and what my minimum price would be. But I didn't see them in the glass case, he said oh it's in the back while we reorganize the case. Another week or two later I had another gun ordered to them to do a background check and still noticed it wasnt there. I asked and the lady said oh I'm not sure, it might be awaiting a background check for the buyer and didn't really give me a straight answer. Tomorrow I'm picking up the gun I ordered so I'll check the glass case again.

I'm wondering, does it usually take a while to sell and is it normal practice to keep them in the back (I suppose they could always say something like "oh we have two Glocks in the back if you're interested" to a would be buyer) Or are they dragging their feet and I should ask for the guns back and sell them elsewhere? If I were to ask for them back, is it unreasonable for me to ask to just take them back and not pay anything or do they usually still charge a fee for still "having them on sale" even though it was in the back?

Update: picked up my other gun today and the other two were in the case. The employees said one guy was interested but didn't have the money quite yet but that would expect them to get more attention/sell soon with tax refunds coming in.

Hey everybody! Happy New Year! We unfortunately have to make some small adjustments to our transfer fee pricing. We will be raising all of our fees by $10 except for NFA which will stay at $100. So the new scheme will be as follows

$40 for one firearm

$30 for each firearm for multiple firearms on one form

$20 for the background check fee ($18 for WA state background check tax and a $2 processing fee for us)

$100 for NFA transfers (Mostly Silencers)

So if you were to buy 3 firearms on one 4473 your transfer fee would be as follows ($30 x 3 = $90 + $20 = $110)

That’s all this year, we would love to keep the prices at the level they have been but unfortunately the gun buying market in WA isn't likely to get better anytime soon, this raise is necessary to keep our employees employed and their families fed as well as keeping prices on firearms low.

Interested in getting a Saiga 410 shotgun in unmodified form. I understand that a Saiga with a pistol grip isn’t legal. Will I be able to get one as long as it has a the traditional hunting style stock?

What shops do yall recommend and like in these three cities?

I would like to see my choices in person rather than online. Thanks everyone

Not having any luck finding somewhere to transfer a mini 14. any place that has them in stock in or around fife

Any lower priced transfers around Spokane these days? Pretty new to this side. I want to get a microdagger frame for my g43, but it's hard to justify the typical $40+$18 I'm seeing on a $60 frame. Wondering if maybe there's a smaller/home ffl I'm not seeing

Just wanted to share my experience and turn around time for a form 4 and form 1.

12/14: bought suppresor 12/16: form 3 pending notification 12/17: shipped 12/20: delivered to Sound Loan 12/21: form 4 filled out tax stamp, finger prints and picture submitted 12/27: form 4 approved and picked up, transfer fee and tax paid

12/28: form 1 submitted online with tax stamp paid 12/31: Approved

Now I need to get my lower engraved.

My buddy has an AR-15 he bought pre ban, and he was talking about selling it, and I was wondering if we took it to an FFL does pre ban acquired ARs still apply to the ban? Would I be able to purchase his AR? I couldn't really find a part of the law that specifically mentioned private sales of banned guns that are already in existence. So if anyone has any advice or tips on that. I just wanna buy my buddies AR lol
