OP, being a fellow WA resident, I am curious as to if you've purchased any handguns since the ridiculous 1639 legislation went into effect. I saw the ad for the CHP pistols and really, really wanted one, but I refuse to give my info to the local chief of police, pay the fee, take a class, and play the stupid leftist games currently in effect..
You got a NICS background check, but local PD was notified on a separate form. Now there is no NICS check and local PD does the background.
Just to end the thread, I went with a PX4 and a good trade at my LGS. Now that I have a .40 carry gun, I'll be looking for a full sized pistol. Either a Beretta 96 or S&W 4006TSW CHP.
I have a beautiful Sig 239, slim reliable and accurate, carries really well for a couple hours as it is rather chunky.
If you bought the PX4 Compact, the PX4 Full Size is a full sized pistol. If you bought the PX4 Full Size, it is a full size pistol.... I went with a PX4 and a good trade at my LGS. Now that I have a .40 carry gun, I'll be looking for a full sized pistol. Either a Beretta 96 or S&W 4006TSW CHP.
I have an "LEO" version as marked on the box with nite sights and they are right on. It was purchased from a local PD as used by Detective 6 months and turned in for High cap 9mms ! I guess they were sighted in by armorers. I also got 5 mags and a holster ! A local gunstore had all ten, I got my pick of the 8 that remained and it is as new in box and I think it was $400 about 5 years ago. I put a set of Houge Aluminum grips on it which were inexpensive but enhance the all metal image .I, also, have a 239 which I like except for the sights. The front sight is impossible to drift without a special SIG tool and the rear is too tall so it shoots low at 15 yards. The aluminum frame and steel slide make it a formidable weapon.
With an extra .357 Sig barrel it is all I desired except for the sights. (Longshot is the powder of choice for hi-powered loads.)
