On July 1st, the WA SAFE background check fee is set to jump 84%.
Not because crime went up.
Not because the process got better.
But because the state decided exercising a constitutional right should cost more.

Call it what you want — but to a lot of us, this feels like a poll tax on the Second Amendment. And we’re not sitting quietly while the price of a right keeps creeping higher.

We’re writing our representatives and telling them exactly how we feel about this.

WASHINGTON GUN OWNERS — ANOTHER “FEE ADJUSTMENT” DROPS JULY 1, 2026

Here’s the message sent to FFLs:

Hello FFLs

Each firearm dealer business location will soon be receiving an official letter from WSP Firearm Background Division providing notification of the background check fee change to $33.00, effective July 1, 2026.

This email is to ensure all affected parties are informed of the change to the best of our ability.

The Washington State Patrol Budget and Fiscal Services Division conducts periodic rate studies for various activities within the State Patrol. The purpose of these studies is to develop options for setting rates to charge third-party users of Washington State Patrol services.

Rate studies are conducted in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, federal cost allocation guidelines, and governmental accounting standards. It is the agency’s intent to also comply with Revised Code of Washington 43.43.580, which states in part:

"The fee must be set at an amount reasonably calculated to cover the direct and indirect costs to the Washington state patrol incurred in administering the firearm background check program.’

Rate studies are normally conducted at the start of each biennium, and it is anticipated that the next study will be conducted in May 2029.

Thank you,

Fi****ms Background Division

Now here’s the reality from our side:

Every time the state bumps a fee, adds a form, or tightens a process, it’s never the criminals who feel it — it’s the lawful gun owners and the small businesses who follow every rule they’re given.

This is one more example of rights being chipped away slowly, quietly, and under the label of “administrative cost.”
It’s death by a thousand cuts, and every cut lands on the people who aren’t the problem.

We’ll stay compliant.
We’ll stay professional.
But we’re not going to pretend this isn’t yet another barrier placed between Washington citizens and their constitutional rights.

Rights don’t vanish, they are chipped away.

The VP9CC just teleported into the shop and immediately vanished.

This morning’s delivery dropped off the brand‑new HK VP9CC — the newest addition to the HK pistol lineup — and before we could even get it on the shelf, the first customer through the door claimed it like Excalibur.

We literally snapped a picture… and the gun sold itself mid‑click.
Gone. Vaporized. Zero shelf time.

This one was the 10‑round state‑compliant model, paired with the Vortex Defender enclosed emitter optic, and it was every bit as clean, compact, and carry‑ready as HK fans hoped it would be.

If you want the next one, you better move like you’re clearing a room — because these things are not sticking around.

⚡️ Call. Run. Teleport. Whatever you gotta do.
The next batch is going to disappear just as fast.

Locked, loaded, and straight out of a 1970s action flick — the Smith & Wesson Model 29-10 just swaggered into Pantel Tactical, and this Dirty Harry hand cannon is absolutely ready to make someone’s day.

This thing isn’t a revolver… it’s an attitude.
Blued steel, classic lines, and that unmistakable .44 Magnum presence that says:
“Go ahead… you know the rest.”

If you’ve been waiting for a wheelgun with personality, punch, and pure cinematic energy, this is your moment. Come pick it up before someone else feels lucky.
