Bill summary

Official digest is not on this card.

Now vs if chaptered

NOW: Senate Law & Justice; 9.41.390 import ban still live. IF chaptered: CPL holders may import assault rifles; other manufacture/import/sale remains a gross misdemeanor.

Defender utility

WA PDs on 9.41.390 import/AWB calendars: live law still bans civilian import of assault weapons. This print is a pending CPL-holder import carve-out, not a possession defense for in-state manufacture or dealer sale. Portable AWB analogue — not a California charge.

Who this is for. WA PDs on 9.41.390 assault-weapon import calendars — pending CPL carve-out, not present law; not a California charge.

Penalties (if chaptered)

9.41.390 remains a gross misdemeanor for non-excepted manufacture, import, distribution, or sale.
