Can firearms be given to relatives w/o a background check? E.G. can a brother give a gun to a sister (not living under the same roof but both reside in WA)

Thanks! That is what I was thinking but WA does not always have logic built into gun laws

This is the law that would apply to me.

If they hadn't been registered (long gun, pre-'76(?)), I wouldn't have bothered with the paperwork.

Helpful.....but what is a "parents-in-law"? Don't think that I've heard that before.

Not really but I think you should keep it to yourself and not tell Inslee. I don't think that anyone gives a damn what families do within the family structure.......unless you give a gun to someone who is prohibited from possessing a firearm.

Seems pretty straight forward to me. Parents = mother and father. Parents in law = mother in law and father in law.https://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=9.41.113

Thank you.....think I have it. Father/mother (or either adoptive parent) can give his son/daughter a firearm. Similarly, a father or mother-in-law can give their son or daughter-in-law a firearm. Just never heard the term parents-in-law.

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?
Capacity is irrelevant in the transfer legality.

Anyone know if this applies to a “will”?
In other words, is a FFL needed?
