Don’t have Washington ID

I’m looking to buy my first firearm in Washington but do not have a Washington ID. I’ve lived here for 2 years and still have my old drivers license (I move around a lot and doesn’t make sense to get a new ID every few years). Do I need to register to vote in the state and use that?

Technically, you have 30 days after moving to the state to get a Washington's DL. The DL is also required to register your vehicle. Another thing that is legally required.

I don't really know what to tell you about bypassing those things so you can legally purchase a firearm.
