And how did WV or Virginia come into play here?  Am I not high enough or did I miss something? This is Washington State - everything I have seen is a question for someone in Washington State... Let's not get too confused by confusing other state laws and rules into what a Washington State resident is asking in Washington State.

Maybe I should have made this part in bold Quote: If I'm correct one doesn't need to do a "594 transfer through FFL" if the firearm is going to a direct family member. The rest was just humor.

ANZAC wrote: Estate transfer ("by operation of law") is exempt from 594 providing you file the state pistol transfer form (no cost). You can also go to an FFL if you want. Quote: A person who (i) acquired a firearm other than a pistol by operation of law upon the death of the former owner of the firearm or (ii) acquired a pistol by operation of law upon the death of the former owner of the pistol within the preceding sixty days. At the end of the sixty-day period, the person must either have lawfully transferred the pistol or must have contacted the department of licensing to notify the department that he or she has possession of the pistol and intends to retain possession of the pistol, in compliance with all federal and state laws. Doesn't that pretty much mean: (i) In the will. And (ii) legal transfer while the deceased was still alive. ??? Edit: Ok, wait. (ii) doesn't mean it happened before the death occurred. Just means the 60 day limit isn't up, yet...
