As a sometime WA resident, I've always wondered if you could have a registered lower and just throw a Title I upper on it. The Federal and State definitions appear to be different.

But, I don't have time to pursue it.

Doesn't Bigfoot live in Washington?If ever there was an argument for owning and carrying an SBR,the possibility of being attacked by Bigfoot is the best one I've ever heard.Damn latte drinking hippies!

Unless I'm mistaken, you can OWN a suppressor in WA state, but can NOT actually USE it.

That's how I've come to interpret the law. Makes perfect sense doesn't it?

SBR are legal to own in WA if they are grandfathered in, LE or MIL.

Can the grandfathered in ones be sold or transfered to other WA residents?

Been wondering that myself. Saw this online, but still need to do more research.

Another option I was checking out were AR pistols. We can own those in WA and should state law ever change, they can be converted to a rifle. As I understand the law though; once a rifle, always a rifle. You can't just switch back and forth but until state law changes or you move to somewhere SBR friendly, the pistol is it unless your situation is as Stickman suggested.
