Yep, I have used Cabela's to buy or destroy firearms for my estate.

Tim, without commenting on the Oregon vs. Washington similarities, I have found Cabela's to be most helpful in taking possession and transferring to another dealer.

Sincerely,

Tom

Would appreciate any thoughts on best practices here:

I have a probate where decedent left a .38 Smith & Wesson revolver to his grandson, who resides in Oregon. From my review of RCW 9.41.113(4) it seems that the transfer would be exempt from needing to be transferred through a firearms dealer. However, while it looks like Oregon has a similar statute (ORS 166.435) that would also exempt the transfer-I'm wondering if I'm missing something? Also, thoughts on best practices for making the transfer, PR does not want to drive to Oregon to hand deliver. Should firearm be shipped to a dealer near beneficiary in Oregon?

Thanks in advance.

Tim
