Ok, kind of off topic (not OC related) but kinda not (still gun related...lol)

3 of my local gun stores do not have lay-away options, and since I'm unsure of my future income, I'd like to see if there are any that would do lay aways in/around Vancouver, WA. I don't mind if I have to venture into Oregon. Just wanted to know my options. Thanks so much!

If you're talking handguns, remember for any purchase in OR you'll have to add FFL transfer fees (and shipping, too, I suppose.)

OH yeah huh thanks for the reminder.

Alright, rephrase the question: any place in Vacouver or ABOVE? :p (presuming it's no more than a 45-min drive away)

Topkick Pawn And Loan 13014 Pacific Avenue South, Tacoma, WA‎ - (253) 537-4747‎

they have unlimited layaway plans on all weapons. no tax on layaway and like $50 down on any weapon.

Be warned they are extremely overpriced but you do you unlimited layway time, no layaway fee's and such.

Its about an 1.5 hour drive and they have 200+ rifles in stock and maybe 50+ handguns.

I recently ordered/purchased a pistol at Bullseye in Tacoma and they handled it as a layaway (I put half up for them to order it and was given a layaway receipt, then paid the rest when I picked it up after it came in).

Got what I bought at a decent price.

I actually started an IRA very recently and will definitely consider starting a savings account too. Just wanted to see what my options are.

And I didn't know there's a gun shop up in Battleground! I'm there quite often. I'll definitely look that up. Thanks for the tips!
