I'm a noob so I apologize if this is a silly question or has been covered already. I'm new to the site and haven't quite gotten efficient with the search functions here...
Anyway, I have found a couple of rifles for sale on another site that seems to have good activity for WA gun sales. In both cases the seller says he will only sell to someone with a permit or CPL. I don't get this? A rifle is not a handgun. The laws for each are different. It seems like if you document the sale you are no more protected if someone has a permit than if they don't.
I just purchased a new handgun from a dealer so I just went through a background check, etc. It was actually much easier and faster than I expected (first time purchase).
Why are these private parties requiring CWP's or CPL's to sell a rifle?
Thanks in advance for the education and information...
