Who lives in Washington outside of Seattle

>>34191001

Innawoods is best. I usually go to Capitol forest that is North of Olympia. 100k plus acres of all that land you can shoot in.

Why would you want to live anywhere near the seattle metro area when anywhere just east of the cascades is objectively more /comfy/

I currently live in Orange County but I grew up here and am looking to move back spring 2018. Kinda don't want to live in Seattle but what are some k places I can still get a machinist job?

>>34191049
Because it's difficult to find decent paying jobs on the east side of the state.

>>34191311
Kitsap shipyards are usually looking for machinists.

>>34191355

This right here.

good pay.
good hours.
good employees for the most part.

>>34191017
lakewood here, except for the ponders pawnshops and that new Welchers range, i dont know where else to go, i havent been here very long

Bass are biting.

>>34191395
I'll take a look, hopefully I don't have to live in Bremerton tho.

>>34191395
Also there are a surprising amount of /k/ommandos, and a couple of LGSes with reasonable (~$20) transfer fees. There are ranges in Bremerton and Poulsbo and MAXIMUM INNNAWOODS is over on the Olympic Peninsula in the national forest and near Olympia.

>>34191326
Good luck finding a job in Seattle that will cover your rent and still leave any pennies for ammo.

>>34191463
I'm right outside Olypmia and the only spots I knew about have been covered up or blocked off.. Back to bench shooting at Evergreen -_-

If you're in tech which half the city is you make bank

>>34191589
Yeah, you make good money, but you're also paying $2900/mo for a studio apartment. You'd better be making REAL good money.

>>34191001
the filter in that pic is really annoying.

>>34191616

>$2900 for a studio apartment

Try shopping around

I live in Kitsap area because of navy. Olympic park is awesome. I also know of a spot on the oly peninsula where they used to log that is good for shooting

>>34191001
Good hikes:

Lake serene
Barclay lake
Eagle lake
Anything in Icicle creek canyon
Anything on the PCT north of rainy pass
Rachel lake
Gothic basin

Basically anything longer than five miles is good, it gets you away from the riff-raff day-hikers.

It's a good place to be a gun owner, pretty much any non-felon can get a gun, CC permits are granted to anybody.

There are a bunch of good places to shoot. Dozens of gravel pits and empty clear cuts out in the middle of nowhere along highway 2, near Darrington, basically any highway going through the cascades.

Don't move to Seattle. It is expensive and degenerate. I made the mistake of moving here and I live less than a mile from a 20 foot statue of Vladimir Lenin. Seriously. The farther away from Seattle you get, the more rednecks, libertarians and conservatives you'll come across.

Aside from the shit weather nine months out of the year and the progressive degeneracy in Seattle, Washington is a pretty alright place.

Find your own spots faggot

>>34191691
This. Will add that if you follow I 90 east, you will go through the Wenatchee forest, which have lots of forest service roads you can innawoods frome

>>34191569
You ever go shooting down by Suncrest?

>>34191355
I worked in shipyards for about seven years, four in one yard and three in another

Great pay, mostly great group of guys once you're one of the boys and not a new guy, but regularly working 70+ hour weeks and most often having shitty upper management really takes its toll on you

>>34191462
If you want to live farther up north and not on the peninsula there's one in Bellingham (I think), Dakota Creek in Anacortes (I was there for three years and they were great people), Nichols Brothers in Freeland (I was there for four years, good people but management was pretty bad and when I was there they had too much work and not enough employees and they worked me to the bone), and I'm sure there are more in the Everett-Seattle area but Vigor is the one that stands out to me there, they have a great reputation and I tried getting hired on there after the previous two but with no luck

And also there's always Boeing, if you can get through the frequent layoffs and can really get your foot in the door and be in like Flynn there's a really great career

>>34191842

Bremerton is a shithole. Its where I live now. Im getting the hell out of here as soon as I can.

>/k/ - shipyard employment in WA advice

>>34191878

Well anywhere is better than chicago. But in regards to places that are actually habitable. It's garbage. Speed traps and cops everywhere, property values are through the roof because of the military flux, only reliable employment is PSNS unless you want to work in tacompton or seattle, druggies everywhere, traffic is shit if your trying to get anywhere near PSNS between 3-5, I could go on.

>>34191878
You clearly aren't from around here

Renton is better than
>tukwila, especially the hill
>Des Moines
>burien
>Kent
>sea tac
>shoreline
>Lynnwood

Literally on and on

>>34191878

You should also go see Spokane, Aberdeen, yakima and richland if you think renton is the only bad part.

Is Washington really that bad for guns? I know Metro Seattle is a shithole like most metros, but I might want to live near the city and commute to work in the future if the tech scene is really as good as I've heard.

>>34192006
It's good for now. AG McFaggotron keeps pushing an AWB and it keeps failing.

>>34191960
Is Richland really that bad too? I've been looking around there to move too as well.

>>34191017
Lynnwood here sadly

>>34192055
I lived in lynnwood for a while while I was at EDCC, if you stay away from Aroura it's not too too bad.

>>34191616
Bro, I live on the east side. There's fucking nothing but farming and service industry. There's no good money unless you are in a trade and those are limited since everyone else is poor as fuck so they aren't hiring carpenters/welders/masons.

>>34192041

Yes, its a redneck shithole with NOTHING there besides the tri cities. And will likely be uninhabitable when the Nuclear clean up project fails

>>34191960
>yakima
Please save me from this hot shitty hole.

>>34192038
Is an attorney general even supposed to have that much direct influence with legislation?
Aside from him trying to push shit, and what I'd guess is generally strict laws in the metro, WA is pretty chill about guns right?

>>34191462

Bremerton is shit, Silverdale is not that bad.

>>34191463
The only few reasons to live here. We had a mini meet up last fall, seven ppl including myself showed up.

>>34192164
Apparently it's legal within our state constitution. It's the only state I've lived in where that's been a thing tho.

The metro areas actually can't have strict gun control because the state constitution has a pre-emption claus. Washington is pretty fucking cool despite the memes. It would be way cooler without Seattle and all the fucking Boeing boomers and millennial hipsters tho.

>>34192243
That sounds pretty chill, actually. I see lots of horror stories about Seattle ruining the whole state regarding legislation so it's nice to know there are things in place for it.
As far as jobs go, what does central or eastern WA have to offer? I'm sure it's worse than Seattle for my skills but I just want to know what kind of options I'd have.

>>34192282
Do you like agriculture? Or are you a carpenter? Any trade? Otherwise you're probably going to end up in a service industry job. There's the odd higher paying job that isn't one of those things but they're not plentiful. Wenatchee has an Alcoa plant that's shut down right now because of a dispute with the PUD.

>>34192243

Is it bad that if Best Korea did launch a nuke at the U.S. that I hope Seattle would get hit?

>>34191001
Everyone who doesn't live in seattle is fishing right now. Please call back later....or just fuck off. No one is giving you their supersecret shooting spots because any time someone does they get overrun by neckbeards in plate carriers who run around flagging each other.

No, it's just the people. They're fuck heads, but you're good to have whatever except for SBS's and when you get your CC you can carry anywhere in the state except federal and state buildings.

Any where around Mt Rainier is good. Morton, Elbe, mineral, ashford and beyond all have plenty of shooting spots.

Should we organize a WA meet up? I knew there were /k/ommandos here but I've never met any.
Currently live in Tacoma. I'm going innawoods out in ashford Saturday actually.

>>34192282
Even Seattle is pretty chill. The worst thing about it is the dumb tax on guns and ammo.

>>34192345

Just the people. Washington has state preemption of local firearms laws, meaning nothing more strict than state law is legal. So Seattle can't ban conceal/open carry (don't try to OC there though), can't impose an AWB or stricter purchasing requirements or any other bullshit.

All you need is public land, daylight hours, and a good backstop. Usually a gravel pit left over from loggers.

Op here. Do you guys ever go shooting Inwoods alone? I mean the pits I would go to by mt rainier are never really empty there's always going to be someone around shooting too. I just get a lil paranoid going alone and getting shot by our latest serial killer.

is there ANYTHING to do in or near lakewood/steilacoom? all the people i know are in Oly, and that commute sucks

>>34192823
Different anon, but King County is basically where all the high dollar jobs are, right?
Are places just around King County but within commute distance like Tacoma or just up north good to go for legislation and cost of living or are they fucked too?

>>34193091
Gunwise in Lakewood? No. There are a few ranges around bullseye, the narksman, and the Tacoma sportsman club which is outdoor and has a rifle range too. Capitol Forrest is going to be your best bet for fun shooting. Start at the triangle pit and just explore from there if you don't like it.

>>34194168
Nowhere in the state of WA is really scary, there are some shitty places but nothing really scary. Stockton CA is shitty and scary you are going to be hard pressed to find a shittier place in terms of crime and general shittyness. Well you can it is just not going to be in a first world country.

>>34194219
funny story actually there was an officer coming up to work for Kennewick PD over in tri cities. He was an LAPD officer so they had to drive I5 up from LA, well they stopped in Stockton for food and someone stole the Uhaul with all their stuff as well as the car they were towing.

UW Seattle here. For all intents and purposes WA state is great, but Seattle and our politicans ruin everything. My friends, pls stock up on mags and AR lowers while they are cheap. Our glorius AG bob ferguson will introduce another assault / ammo ban again in november, and im 100% sure it will go through. They got I-594 and I-1491 to pass, they got the momentum.

i know man. but every year its the same 200 people i see down in olympia protesting. The moment that any kind of antigun legislative gets put up as an initaitve its all over. not enough gun owners here vote, and too many libs vote antigun. you know its true

>>34194257
Is he still pushing this as a ballot initiative?

>>34194368
the next legislative session isnt for a few more months, but around when fall starts the democrats (along with the AG and the squad) will push for putting the AWB on the ballot as initiative. When that happens, it cant be stopped in the house (which is how we have fought off these bans for the last 4 years). They passed 594 and 1491 via initative, and in november they will seal the deal

>>34194257
>They got I-594 and I-1491 to pass, they got the momentum.

paper tigers, both of 'em. 594 is stupid but ineffectual, 1491 is entirely irrelevant

thats the problem man. you might think its irrelevant, but it sets the stage perfectly. Go on armslist, look through all the listing, and notice how everyone now wants to do a transfer at a local ffl for $25 bucks or something. its got people scared, paranoid. true, not a single person has gotten arrested for 594, but its still another win for the antigunners.

my point is, yes we will fight it. il be down in olympia when november comes around. but we dont have enough support, not in this state. i just wanted to remind people here to stock up on lowers and mags if you can. if awb goes through, good you got "high" cap mags and lowers waiting to become ARs. if it doesnt go through, then great u got more cool stuff

>tfw $600 rent in the heart of the city

it's not that difficult to live here if you lower your standards.

most of the high cost apartments are because the tech companies employ kids straight out of college so they still hold the standards of their parent's lifestyle.

same goes with owning a car in Seattle, most of the residents come from cities where you need a car, so they can't drop the idea that a car isn't necessary in a city you can walk to a whole foods, Kroger, and Safeway within 15 min
so they end up paying for $100+/month parking and car payments/insurance/maintenance/gas

anyone that has lived on their own outside of college dorms/family home can figure it out.

>>34192006
Ask the average seattleite what the second largest city is.

They'll say Tacoma or Olympia.

Spokane is the second largest city in Washington, that's farmers, right wingers, and illegals.

What's wrong with the Lenin statue? It's great. It's not meant to support communism at all anyway. The guy that brought it here was a professor that saw it scheduled to be torn down in Russia, but managed to mortgage his house and shit to pay to have it moved here. The point of it was to highlight the unspoken animosity and resentment the people had to the communist leaders. The artist took what little liberties he was afforded and sculpted a rough and imperfect representation of a man that looks ever so slightly apprehensive

I don't think they're SUPPOSED to, but the anti-gunners are desperate, so they're doing literally anything they can think of.

The rest of the state is pretty good, but the reality is that between Seattle and Californians it's probably only matter of time before the B&hammer starts dropping.

I never committed a felony in my life but Washington prohibits my possession of firearms as though I were a felon.

Fuck your bitchass without-due-process state.

I told all my California friends to move to Washington because it's so perfect for them.

>>34199136
What precisely DID you commit, convict?

>>34199150
A nonviolent misdemeanor with no convictions prior or since.
Sentence: 3 years summary probation and $300 restitution

>>34199188
That doesn't clear it up very well. Was it drug related, did you end up in a ward, was it domestic related, threats?

>>34199136
Aren't you an OR resident anyways? I think I remember your thread and it's fucked up they can do that.

>>34199198
No, no, no and nope.
No violence.
No assault.
No drugs.
No domestic scuffle.
No mental health issues.
No threats to anyone.
No prior record.
No violent history.
No restraining orders.
No yelling "fire" in a movie theater.
No insulted police officers.
No vulgarity.
No public intoxication.
Nothing you would ever think could possibly preclude firearm ownership. Yet Washington thinks so.

Just stay away from WA then. Would it help if you did something about that charge in the state you got convicted in? I can't say go get your rights back because you never lost them, but expungement (sic) maybe? I have a felony from WA but I reinstated my rights and have been buying guns for a while and have a ccw but sometimes I wonder if I would still get turned down in other states like you even though I reinstated my gun rights..?

>>34199294
>>34199319
I have an idea, what if you try to get your rights back on that charge in a WA state superior court, the charge does take your rights away in this state, petition for them back in this state then. In theory it should work and a judge could reinstate your rights back on that charge in this state.

>>34199136
I've told your ass before. Talk to a WA firearms attorney, you can get that fixed in less than a month.

>>34199363
Why bother. If it's a long gun, he gets it tax free k. Oregon anyway. Plus Oregon has the much better shops (NW Armory). And assuming he's an OR resident, he can't buy a hand gun across the moat anyway

Just bought a sig today and the lady at the counter mentioned hearing protection act. Hope it passes soon!

I can understand living right near the border of another state and effectively being told if you ever enter that state with a firearm in your possession that you're committing a felony (prohibited person in possession) despite the fact that you can legally own any firearm in your home state.

Hey I live in Seattle, being a degenerate does not preclude you from being a /k/ommando.

>>34199723
I guess I just have a warped view. I live in Couv, but work in Gresham. Every single Oregon resident I know doesn't cross the bridge short of a death situation. They all simple can't fathom going up there when they can do stuff tax free down there. Couple that with the fact that the gun shops in Vancouver suck, and I just have a hard time imagining why you'd cross the border for any reason. Now, if your a WA resident who was rejected, that's a lot more understandable. But I think I'd just move if that was the case. As it is, if the AWB passes, I'm going to Idaho, Utah, or Montana

>>34191943

I'll get it expunged from California first.

>>34200090
You don't vacate anything to get rights reinstated. I didn't. I'm still a felon with gun rights.

>>34199719
Tell me about Tacoma, anon. I heard it's the place to be if I want the big boy jobs of Seattle without having to deal with as much of the politics, congestion, and cost of living.
Would being north or south of Seattle be the safer bet, assuming I worked in the city?

>>34199777
I heard that recently, he started warming up a bit to them because that character is basically all he's known for. No sauce on that unfortunately.

Moving into Seattle (Eastlake) next week. I was worried my ultralib housemates would not be comfortable with my guns but they seem to be cool about it. Looking forward to coming back from a day out and taking over the kitchen table for cleaning and seeing how they really feel.

>>34200194
I mean, honestly traffic north or south of seattle is going to suck at this point. Too many people with too little infrastructure. Cost of living is going to be about the same north or south, as long as you get above shoreline or below west seattle (east or west of I-5) then you should be in the same price range. The advantage of Tacoma is that while it is farther south than White Center/Burien/Des Moines/Renton/Auburn/Kent you can actually find quality places to rent with non-ghetto neighbors without totally getting fucked.

But get on top of it because people are beginning to invade fast and soon Tacoma will be competitive. I would also seriously consider public transit options such as the bus/sounder because traffic really does suck all the way from Olympia to Everett during peak hours every single day.

I rode the sounder for work every day for a year from Tacoma to Seattle with my bike and it was cozy. Had to off-body carry but I had a good bag that I could rip open one handed. Hopefully they finish the damn light rail soon.

Best of luck

Don't worry about it. The insane lefties have been pushing a quixotic AWB bill in the state legislature for the last two decades, only to have it defeated every year. They know it has no chances of passing, but since state representative elections are so local, all they have to do is pander to the one demographic in their district. That's how Kshama Sawant became a Seattle city councilwoman; because her district is literally the epicenter of gay marxists outside of SF.

>>34198468
Bellingham looked like a nice little city when I drove up for Linuxfest Northwest, just very far from everything else.

>>34200442
It's nice if you are in college (hopefully not in liberal arts bs) or are retired. Otherwise the job market is dominated by the schools and the hospital and everything else is dead end service bullshit that doesn't pay.

On the other hand, if you are a ski/backpacking bum who doesn't care about money it is heaven on earth.

>>34200442
Linuxfest was great. It's a nice little town and the people there are usually friendly, it's just dominated by WWU most of the year and WWU is pretty standard as far as left leaning schools go.

>>34200373
Thanks anon, though I probably won't be moving for a little while, and I know a lot can change in a year or two.
I was looking at either Tacoma and ride a rail for work, or somewhere around Bothell and work in the Redmond area, and wanted to get an idea of things like the community and /k/omrade friendliness.

>>34200559
PNW anons hate everyone. Youll feel like an outsider. Until you assimilate. Then you hate everyone, too

>>34200582
this guy gots it

>>34200559
Tacoma is definitely one of the few places around the sounds where a good portion of vehicles have "guns n coffee" stickers and the gun stores are full of patrons every day. Plus the proximity to JBLM means sweet milsurp shopping if you're into that. I'm pretty sure the county as a whole voted against 594 and most stupid legislation. All of the leftists stay around UWT and downtown but its pretty blue collar besides that.

>>34198262
could be worse you could live in Waitsburg and at least you are closer to good woodland than I am over here in Tri-cities

>>34200582
You are not incorrect compared to parts of America but Tacoma is more friendly than Seattle by a big margin imo. Lived here 20 years of my life and I talk to people on the street and on transit all the time without weirdness. Had someone ask me for directions just this morning downtown without awk.
Never had that experience in Seattle.

>>34200638

>>34200617
As a tacoma native I can vouch for most of us just being simple gun loving people.
>>34200638
friendly to a point but Im always a little suspicious of everyone though I act friendly but maybe thats just me

>>34200638
I think you misunderstood. We hate everyone as a matter of course. Polite masks the distrust we have. PNW folks are some of the most friendly you'll meet. But good luck becoming friends with them. The mistrust runs deep. Especially for outsiders.

Seattle/Tacoma doesn't count. They've never been a good example of what this state is. it's like trying to base Oregon on Portland alone

>>34199810
Work at Boeing field, they love vets

>>34200666
You're probably right to be skeptical satan, it is an arms-length friendliness.
>>34200670
Fair point, the only things I can think to counter this is my TCC experience where I made a lot of friends who were 10-25 years older than me and genuinely nice. Still see them a lot. Eastern WA definitely has some nicer people in the small towns but they probably hated me inside because I was an outsider lol

>>34200415
hopefully it never passes and seattle is taken out by la-hares when Rainer goes boom. It would be a net positive in this state to get rid of all the hipster cali transplants that now call seattle home. I lived over there for 6 months and the best thing there was the cancer treatment. The older liberals in seattle are pretty chill though, they dont give a shit about gun control and just want to be left alone, same mentality of people on the peninsula really more like left leaning libertarians then what we would now call liberals. I suppose it comes from the same mentality of people on the upper peninsula in Michigan. People moved to WA back in the day to be on the frontier and be left the fuck alone. That carries on to all true PNW natives for the most part.

anyone here ever seen any spoops in WA, I had something large and bipedal walk by my tent in the middle of fuck all nowhere, hadn't seen a person for 3 days and all the people in my group were in their tents. I was 15 miles from a trail head 50 miles from nowhere. This is probably more fit for /x/ but fuck it they are slow. Judging by how the thing shook the ground as it walked it was pretty heavy. Probably would have needed a full size caliber minimum to make me feel safe.

IF your job takes you across the city then yes. if any of your job will take you south of UW youre looking at traffic as a regular part of your work. the only saving grace may depend on the time of day you'll be traveling from your position in the north to any other point south of the montlake cut/i-5 bridge

My job also takes me all over the city, however it tends to keep me at sites for a few years at a time. I had been commuting from the south to West seattle which was preddy gud. But now its south ALL the way to the northgate area. Shitsux but the pay makes up for it.,

Any of you faggots go to UW?

Shoots decently enough. Just not a long distance shooter. Up to 200-300 yards. At that point probably can use a slingshot and get about as good.

As a new gen native that's basically my feelings too Wish that was more popular in national politics.

Settle in Kitsap and take the ferry. Kitsap Transit is starting a passenger ferry from Bremerton to Seattle in July that has a 25 minute travel time.

Take a sailing class. Lakewood is great.

>>34204421
Been thinking of taking up sailing, been interested in taking a trip on that schooner thats around

>>34204421
Too bad the dude that runs the boathouse is a dick and the people who tend to work there are pretentious and seriously suffering from Dunning-Kruger

>>34204505
I got lucky I guess. The students did most of the teaching for the class I took and I paired up with someone who was a fast learner so we both got to take one of the small boats out and mostly just chill and sail on our own.

>>34204521
just remembered this
>show up for class
>dead week so nothing planned
>if you want you can grab a boat for the hour and a half or just leave
>buddy and I are only ones who sail that day
wtf everybody else. we're you all just in it for the easy credit and not to sail?

Traffic will never EVER get better. Density advocates will keep pushing, the Seattle S.S.R. will keep growing, and the fucks in power will keep destroying roadway in favor of transit, bicycle lanes, and wider "pretty" sidewalks. The only way ST3 could even be implemented was to completely remove lanes of traffic along I-90 and many surface streets. They expect everyone to bicycle or take mass transit like good little proles.

You posted this same picture in another thread talking about places to shoot on public land. If that's a picture of DNR logging land in King County, is that in the big chunk of public land around Howard Hanson Reservoir? All the other sizeable chunks of DNR land in King Co. are Marckworth State Forest near Duvall (no shooting), Tiger/Cougar Mountain State Park (no shooting), and Mt Si (no shooting). There just have to be more flatlands closer to Seattle that are actually open to public target shooting.

The big problem is most of the land outside of the city is either
1. Unincorporated exurbs where there's enough room to legally shoot but all the suburbanites have petitioned the county to make a no-shooting zone
2. Private forestry land where they'll stick you with a big fine or arrest if you trespass by walking five feet off the road
3. Municipal watersheds. Cedar River is a HUGE chunk of land that's completely closed to public access so Seattle can monopolize what kind of contaminants they leech into the water supply. Tacoma owns much of the Green River further south.
5. State Parks, State Forests, and no-shooting zones along the I-90 corridor because of all the people. The Mountains-to-Sound people have been instrumental in clearing out "illegal shooting" to make way for more faggy bike trails. Because the "Cabela's" crowd ought to be chased out in favor of attracting the "REI" crowd.

So yeah, there's a lot of forestry land, but also a LOT of population pressure. You really do have to drive like 30 miles down a dirt road in order to get out into the REAL boonies in King County.

Kitsap county best county.
