[WSBAPT] Transfer of Revolver - Best Practice?

[Roger Hawkes]

My guess is there are serious federal rules about  transporting a firearm interstate.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Transfer of Revolver - Best Practice?

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
