Same old thing with government agencies. Making law with policy and there is no oversight anymore.

I bow to no man in my dislike of regulatory overreach.

However, in the case of interstate gun sales, isn't this actually in the ('68) GCA, rather than just being something BATF came up with and added to the CFR?

If the area is restricted to over 21, no guns.  Under 21 allowed,  it's legal to carry.  See RCW 9.41.300 (1d) "That portion of an establishment classified by the state liquor control board as off-limits to persons under twenty-one years of age;....."

 Or look here http://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=9.41.300

No, there's no registry. However, FFLs do log purchases, so if you purchase a handgun commercially or receive one from out of state, there is a paper trail.

We have a dealer sales registry for pistols.  You are NOT required to update the DOL with your address or advise them that you've sold your gun.

Ok, so I am I correct in reading that local cities, counties, and municipalities can't make laws restricting the carry of weapons,  only the discharge?   So, this would make it legal to OC in any city in WA?

Just to clarify a point in the FAQ. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but carrying on "school grounds" is legal, as stated in the FAQ when picking up and dropping off a student from a school. However, this does not mean that you can enter the school building. The building, I believe, is always off limits. So you can walk your child to the door of the building, but you may not enter.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I spent a lot of time looking through the RCW's on this, and I did not see an exception for the school building, only the nebulous "grounds".

That is my understanding also.  This is also a place where I definitely refrain from Open Carry.  While it is probably legal it's one of those cases where unless you really want to make a point it's not worth it.

As someone who works in education, I am concerned about recent shootings on school property. However, I do not want my classroom to be a place where my students are afraid or feel uncomfortable, so at work, I CC. Likewise, I would rather be able to have a conversation with my daughter's teacher about my daughter, rather than about my handgun, so even though I am outside to pick Franki up, I still CC there, too.

There are no laws against CC or OC in banks.  However some banks can be a$$holes about it, just like some stores.

The places listed as no carry are the only ones the State of Washington prohibits lawful carry, OC and CC.  The feds play by their own rules.  Needless to say a private property owner can prohibit carry on their property, but if it isn't posted or you haven't been told otherwise, go ahead and carry.
