Hello all, first post here.
I moved to Washington in the middle of June, but just got my new license last week. I heard rumors of needing to be a resident for 90 days before being able to purchase a handgun. Is this true? Am I considered to have been a resident for 90 days, or just a week? Any other restrictions keeping me from purchasing a gun?
Also, since I am interested in buying a used handgun, how does the background check process work? Does the ffl have to keep the handgun for the 10 day waiting period? Anything else I should know about the process?
Thanks for all the help!
