Gifting Firearms

devanjones · 12-22-2015, 03:54 PM

Hi guys,

Two posts in one day! I was hoping for your feedback on something.

This RCW says in section 4A that I can gift a firearm to my mom without a background check or transferring through an FFL, right?

Just want to confirm that before I bring up to an FFL who told me that you can't gift firearms to an immediate family member without a background check.

He's wrong, you're right. However, YOU have to get a BG check to purchase it, unless you already own it.

I have my CPL, that's why I was going to grab it instead of my dad. That way my mom could get her gun for Christmas. Thanks!
