I want to buy a gun from a WA. resident, I live in Idaho. What is the protocol?

I was in a similar deal, met the guy in Colfax, could not come to terms, so we parted ways. The deal never happened, but now, your question has me wondering.
Legally you are supposed to have it shipped to a 01 FFL in ID.
Potentially, you might even save more on the long run, in gas money, unless youhave a scheduled trip out there for other reasons. In no circumstances, do not do a FTF, for a handgun.

I don't understand. Face to face transfers are completely legal where I'm from. This kind of BS parental legislation. You better do as they tell you or you'll get a spanking and put in time out.
They might be IN STATE, but not across state lines [xx(]
We have the same situation here as WV is a quarter mile from me [^]

The easiest way is do like neal said and have him drive the whole ten miles to Post Falls lol. If the seller is in Spokane thats is...maybe float him some gas money if its a big deal.
As far as getting spanked, being prosecuted by the ATF for a Federal felony goes beyond my definition of spanking.
The holder of an 03 Curio & Relics FFL is a FFL holder. They may acquire a C&R firearm in any state, with the exception of a few states that limit that (CA, NJ, NY come to mind.)
Purchasing by nonresidents.
Residents of a state other than Washington may purchase rifles and shotguns in Washington: PROVIDED, That such residents conform to the applicable provisions of the federal Gun Control Act of 1968, Title IV, Pub. L. 90-351 as administered by the United States secretary of the treasury: AND PROVIDED FURTHER, That such residents are eligible to purchase or possess such weapons in Washington and in the state in which such persons reside.
[1970 ex.s. c 74 ? 2. Formerly RCW 19.70.020.]
Before you believe all this well intentioned ignorance, you might want to see what the Washington law on the subject is. Look up Revised Code of Washington (RCW) Chapter 9.41.124 Purchasing by non-residents. I'd cut&past it here, but that's beyond my internet capabilities.
He lives in Idaho, not Washington. It don't mean squat, what the Washington regs are.
