I think since we live in a state of identity politics one can just identify as one's son, daughter, mother , etc. Seems to work for everything else, why not guns?

Does anyone know whether the capacity ban applies to family transfers? For example if I hypothetically had a firearm with magazines in excess of 10 rounds and wanted to gift that firearm to a family member, is that allowed?

Inslee is on his way out. It's his replacement you need to worry about, i.e. Ferguson!

Capacity is irrelevant in the transfer legality.

Immediate family transfers are exempt from the law.

Helpful.....but what is a "parents-in-law"? Don't think that I've heard that before.
Eligible members are listed in the RCW.

(4) This section does not apply to:
(a) A transfer between immediate family members, which for this subsection shall be limited to spouses, domestic partners, parents, parents-in-law, children, siblings, siblings-in-law, grandparents, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, first cousins, aunts, and uncles, that is a bona fide gift or loan;

 Anyone know if this applies to a “will”?

 In other words, is a FFL needed?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!
