I see increased costs.
I don’t see a way around Washington’s extra fees.

Got a pile of cabelas gift cards and want to buy a pistol. Living in Spokane, the post falls cabelas is the closest by far. Anyone done this? I believe it will have to be transferred to a dealer in WA, yes? Do they have a preferred dealer they work with?
A guy at the gun counter in Post Falls claimed they were setting up an FFL right close on the WA side. Don't know if that's true :dunno:

The extra fees I see are a transfer fee from Idaho store to some place in WA and a transaction fee for processing in WA.

I don't understand the law requiring that a gun purchased in Idaho by a WA resident must be sent to an FFL in WA. Does the State of Washington own its citizens? Why does it matter where an American buys a gun in the US?
It's not a WA law, it's federal.
From the ATF:
Quote
Generally, for a person to lawfully
transfer a firearm to an unlicensed person who resides out of State, the firearm must be shipped to a
Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) within the recipient’s State of residence. He or she may then
receive the firearm from the FFL upon completion of an ATF Form 4473 and a NICS background
check. More information can be obtained on the ATF website at www.atf.gov and

Ah roger that. Thanks for clarifying. This law makes even less sense to me now since the background check is federal :dunno:

Long guns are generally not a problem to buy out of state, except for the headaches caused by 1639.

I think you will find that you can't do the buy in Idaho. WA state dealers can only sell to state residents and I would bet the rules are reciprocal which would mean that Idaho dealers can only sell to Idaho residents.
It just Hass to be shipped to a Washington FFL. You can buy pistols online from any state as long as they’re shipped to an in-state FFL

With all this covid stuff and the DMV shut down, i've not renewed my license after my birthday, wanting to do the enhanced license and get it over with. I know the deadline has been extended but didn't want to pay twice, but now my sister tells me they only charge you the difference. Lesson learned!

I think that’s a national thing. You can’t legally buy a handgun in any state you are not a resident of. It has to be shipped to an ffl in your home state.

What's the process for buying a rifle in Idaho? Walk out same day like it used to be in WA? I made a point to buy all my guns before any of these psycho laws were made so I'm out of touch with what I-1639 entails.

Very true. I have been a resident of WA, I have purchased rifles in WI, UT, ID, and New Zealand, there was never an issue until I-1939. I tried to purchase a rifle in UT after I-1639 passed, they wouldn't sell it to me, they said I-1639 prevented a WA resident from purchasing rifles in UT. They did say that if I owned a home in Idaho under federal firearms laws I would be considered a dual resident and able to purchase as an Idaho resident. I had to call the county courthouse in the Idaho county where I have a home to send the tax ID number of my ID property. I was only able to purchase the rifle because I qualified as an Idaho resident under firearm laws, it was ok'd by NICS.
So you may have trouble trying to purchase a firearm in any state because you are a WA resident unless you own home/property in another state, in which case you apparently would be considered a dual resident and able to purchase as a resident of the other state.
