Wade's Eastside Guns

Wade's Eastside Guns breaks the mold of the typical gun store. They don't treat first-time buyers like a checkbox—they've built the entire business around making the buying process actually understandable.

Handguns are like shoes. They fit everyone differently. Wade's won't tell you "buy this because Dave likes it." Their sales staff gets guns in your hands and works with you to figure out what actually works for YOUR needs.

Their first-time buyer recommendations include: - Glock 19, 17, 45 & 48 – Most purchased handguns in the world, durable and customizable - HK VP9 – German ergonomics, built for defense or competition - Walther PDP – Best trigger out of the box, reliable and adaptable - Ruger RXm – Best value option, designed to use Glock 19 parts - S&W M&P9 – Classic Glock alternative with thumb safety option

Buying a gun in Washington isn't complicated—just tedious. Wade's walks you through it:

1. Pick a gun and talk to a salesman 2. Complete ATF Form 4473 (they help you fill it correctly) 3. State background check paperwork 4. Wait 10 business days (no shortcuts, no exceptions) 5. Complete free HB 1143 online training requirement 6. Pick up your firearm

Paperwork expires 30 days after completion. You have roughly 2 weeks from approval to pickup before forms must resubmit.

Document requirements vary by status: - US Citizens: Valid WA ID/Driver's License with current address - Green card holders: Valid WA ID/DL + green card - Visa holders: Valid WA ID/DL + Valid Alien Firearms License (from county sheriff) + i-94 + current visa

Wade's can help update your address with the Department of Licensing in-store if needed.
