[WSBAPT] PR's duty re weapons of decedent

[Sam Furgason]

Maybe, and probably the best practice, absent a desire to challenge the law
by a PR or beneficiary, but see my next preceding email as to definitions.
And  who is the “we” who have to notify the DOL? The PR or the beneficiary
who actually gets the pistol? Furthermore, does the PR have to submit to a
background check, or just the beneficiary? (Were I advising a PR, I would
strongly recommend that no firearms at all be distributed to anyone who has
not passed a background check.)

I found this  language in the summary of I-594:

 

Exemptions. The following are exempt from the background check requirements
established in the act: Ÿgifts between family members;
................acquisition of a firearm other than a pistol by inheritance,
or acquisition of a pistol by inheritance within the preceding 60 days,
after which time the person must either transfer the pistol or notify the
DOL that the person is retaining the pistol.

This means to me we have to notify  DOL for pistols.

It has been told to me that a PR is under a duty to notify department of
licensing in Olympia of the existence, in an estate, of pistols and rifles.
Is this true?
