FIREARM TRANSFERS BEGINNING 01JULY2019:

DUE TO THE UNFORTUNATE PASSAGE OF I-1639, THE NEW LAW HAS PLACED A BURDEN ON THE GUN STORES OF WASHINGTON STATE. IN DOING SO, IT IS NOW OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO HOLD ANYTHING THAT IS CLASSIFIED AS A ‘SEMI-AUTOMATIC ASSULT RILFE’ (SAR), REVOLVERS & PISTOLS FOR UP TO TEN WORKING DAYS REGARDLESS OF A STATE ISSUED CONCEALED PERMIT (CPL). INCLUSIVE OF THIS INITIATIVE, AN $18 UNCONSTITUTIONAL TAX IS BEING CHARGED FOR THE PURCHASE OF ANYTHING DEAMED A ‘SAR’.

THEREFORE, ANY OUT OF STATE TRANSFERS FOR PISTOLS, REVOLVERS & 'SAR' TO OUR LOCATION WILL SEE AN INCREASE IN TRANSFER FEES FROM $40.00 TO $50.00 PER WEAPON. IT IS THE RESPONIBILTY OF THE PURCHASER TO CONTACT US PRIOR TO PLACING ANY ORDER WITH AN OUT OF STATE VENDOR. WE BEAR THE BRUNT OF OUT OF STATE TRANSFERS SO WE WOULD LIKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE YOU THE WEAPON.

PLEASE CONTACT US BEFORE ORDERING AND SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BUSINESS.

PERSON TO PERSON, LOWERS/FRAMES, SHOTGUNS, BREAK-ACTION, LEVER-ACTION, PUMP-ACTION AND BOLT-ACTION TRANSFERS SHALL REMAIN AT $40.00 PER WEAPON.

Definition according to I-1639:

"Semiautomatic assault rifle" means any rifle which utilizes a portion of the energy of a firing cartridge to extract the fired cartridge case and chamber the next round, and which requires a separate pull of the trigger to fire each cartridge.

"Semiautomatic assault rifle" does not include antique firearms, any firearm that has been made permanently inoperable, or any firearm that is manually operated by bolt, pump, lever, or slide action.

Bigg Dogg Firearms will contact the buyer when the weapon arrives and after recieving. We do need time to process the arrival of your weapon. Thank you.
