For purposes of this subsection (1)(a), a "valid concealed pistol license" does not include a temporary emergency license, and does not include any license issued before July 1, 1996, unless the issuing agency conducted a records search for disqualifying crimes under RCW
9.41.070 at the time of issuance;
(b) The dealer is notified in writing by the chief of police or the sheriff of the jurisdiction in which the purchaser resides that the purchaser is eligible to possess a pistol
or bump-fire stock under RCW
9.41.040 and that the application to purchase is approved by the chief of police or sheriff; or
(c) The requirements or time periods in RCW
9.41.092 have been satisfied.
(2)(a) Except as provided in (b) of this subsection, in determining whether the purchaser meets the requirements of RCW
9.41.040, the chief of police or sheriff, or the designee of either, shall check with the national crime information center, the Washington state patrol electronic database, the department of social and health services electronic database, and with other agencies or resources as appropriate, to determine whether the applicant is ineligible under RCW
9.41.040 to possess a firearm.
(b) Once the system is established, a dealer shall use the state system and national instant criminal background check system, provided for by the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (18 U.S.C. Sec. 921 et seq.), to make criminal background checks of applicants to purchase firearms. However, a chief of police or sheriff, or a designee of either, shall continue to check the department of social and health services' electronic database and with other agencies or resources as appropriate, to determine whether applicants are ineligible under RCW
9.41.040 to possess a firearm.
(3) In any case under this section where the applicant has an outstanding warrant for his or her arrest from any court of competent jurisdiction for a felony or misdemeanor, the dealer shall hold the delivery of the pistol
or bump-fire stock until the warrant for arrest is served and satisfied by appropriate court appearance. The local jurisdiction for purposes of the sale shall confirm the existence of outstanding warrants within seventy-two hours after notification of the application to purchase a pistol
or bump-fire stock is received. The local jurisdiction shall also immediately confirm the satisfaction of the warrant on request of the dealer so that the hold may be released if the warrant was for an offense other than an offense making a person ineligible under RCW
9.41.040 to possess a
((pistol)) firearm.

((pistol)) firearm, if the records of disposition have not yet been reported or entered sufficiently to determine eligibility to purchase a
((pistol)) firearm, the local jurisdiction may hold the sale and delivery of the pistol
or bump-fire stock up to thirty days in order to confirm existing records in this state or elsewhere. After thirty days, the hold will be lifted unless an extension of the thirty days is approved by a local district court or municipal court for good cause shown. A dealer shall be notified of each hold placed on the sale by local law enforcement and of any application to the court for additional hold period to confirm records or confirm the identity of the applicant.
(5)(a) At the time of applying for the purchase of a pistol or bump-fire stock, the purchaser shall sign in triplicate and deliver to the dealer an application containing:
(i) His or her full name, residential address, date and place of birth, race, and gender;
(ii) The date and hour of the application;
(iii) The applicant's driver's license number or state identification card number;

((caliber)) and manufacturer's number if available at the time of applying for the purchase of a pistol. If the manufacturer's number is not available

((pistol)) firearm under
((RCW 9.41.040)) state or federal law.
(b) The application shall contain a warning substantially as follows:
CAUTION: Although state and local laws do not differ, federal law and state law on the possession of firearms differ. If you are prohibited by federal law from possessing a firearm, you may be prosecuted in federal court. State permission to purchase a firearm is not a defense to a federal prosecution.
The purchaser shall be given a copy of the department of fish and wildlife pamphlet on the legal limits of the use of firearms, firearms safety, and the fact that local laws and ordinances on firearms are preempted by state law and must be consistent with state law.
(c) The dealer shall, by the end of the business day, sign and attach his or her address and deliver a copy of the application and such other documentation as required under subsection (1) of this section to the chief of police of the municipality or the sheriff of the county of which the purchaser is a resident. The triplicate shall be retained by the dealer for six years. The dealer shall deliver the pistol
or bump-fire stock to the purchaser following the period of time specified in this chapter unless the dealer is notified of an investigative hold under subsection (4) of this section in writing by the chief of police of the municipality or the sheriff of the county, whichever is applicable, denying the purchaser's application to purchase and the grounds thereof. The application shall not be denied unless the purchaser is not eligible to possess a
((pistol)) firearm under
((RCW 9.41.040 or 9.41.045,)) state or federal law.
(d) The chief of police of the municipality or the sheriff of the county shall retain or destroy applications to purchase a pistol or bump-fire stock in accordance with the requirements of 18 U.S.C. Sec. 922.
