I read through the sticky, and found this...
6) I saw a park sign saying no firearms. Is that legal? (RCW 9.41.290) No. Washington State has preempted all firearms laws regarding possession. You may carry in any city, county, state, National Forest or National Park in Washington State.
But curious why it would say firearms prohibited on the sign, if its still legal to carry? And does anyone have a code/link/law they could point me to that could sum this up better for me. Whats a police reaction going to be when he points at the sign and i say, the signs wrong? Or how do i know if its a private owned park, that allows the public, but can make its own rules? Sorry if these have all been answered or are silly questions, just trying to learn all that i can the best that i can.
