Breaking The Law With The Law

On January 1st of 2019, new gun laws went into effect from Washington State’s Initiative 1639. One popular Western Washington gun dealer, Lynnwood Gun and Ammunition is not playing ball.

As it turns out, they’re legally correct in not doing so.

I-1639 did a number of things, including raising the minimum age to purchase Semi Automatic Assault Rifles to 21 years of age, requiring mental health records to be released for a background check, and requiring proof of completion of a training/safety course to purchase such a firearm.

The age restriction went into effect on January 1st, while the rest of the initiative takes effect on July 1st. Despite the age restriction taking hold at the beginning of the year, Lynnwood Gun and Ammunition will continue to sell Semi Automatic Rifles to persons aged 18-20.
