Hello folks,
I just moved to WA state in early Nov. from CA.
I own a decent collection that I purchased while living in CA.
I just got my WA driver's license in the mail a week and a half ago.
This past Wednesday on the 13th, I went in to my local sheriff's office and did the paperwork/fingerprint for my WA CPL. On the same day, I went into an FFL in Bellevue to do the transfer paperwork for a new handgun that I had purchased via Bud's.
Here's where my question lies.....in the background paperwork, it asked a question if I've been in WA state for the last '90 consecutive days". I marked "no" and informed one of sales guy at the store. He stated that there may be a hold (beyond the WA 10 day wait period) until I meet the 90 day residency. I had thought that this was a requirement that pertained only to immigrant/resident aliens? I'm a US citizen. No criminal record.
Can any of you more informed members here clarify this? I had thought I researched the WA requirements enough ahead of time. Just bummed since I was looking forward to it.
Thanks in advance. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone.
Mike
