I don't have a "cite". I have first hand experience as a purchaser, and as a gun-sales person. If you buy any gun (or stripped lower) in WA, you will do a 4473 with or without a CPL.
i am glad you have this first hand knowledge...
did you see anywhere in my statement(s) or citations an FFL would not have the buyer complete an ATF 4473 Form ?
what i stated is by ATF guidance, WA residents who are purchasing firearms, handguns or rifles or shotguns, and have a valid CC permit - FFLs
DO NOT need to submit buyer's personal data to NICS for approval ~ have the buyer complete front of the 4473, FFL (or gun sales person) list the CC permit & DL info on the back, FFL or gun sales person sign in the proper spot(s) and hand the purchase to the buyer...transfer complete!
now i understand as a gun sales person you are mandated to follow your boxstore's policy and dutifully call in every buyer's personal information or as a purchaser you have been forced to endure the NICS wait, but as you have seen from the cited official ATF guidance, it is not mandated by the ATF for your state's CC permit holders.

added...we are discussing Federal requirements and not 9.41.090 statutes which in part states:
9.41.090. Dealer deliveries regulated - Hold onon delivery
(1) In addition to the other requirements of this chapter,
no dealer may deliver a pistol to the purchaser thereof
until:
(a)
The purchaser produces a valid concealed pistol license and the dealer has recorded the purchaser's name, license number, and issuing agency, such record to be made in triplicate
