It depends on the circumstances. Federal law requires a person to be 21 to purchase a handgun or handgun ammo from a dealer, however, in some states, a person under 21 can purchase a gun from an individual. Besides that, it is not illegal for someone under 21 to POSSESS a handgun under certain circumstances, such as target competition or hunting, or self defense.

Is it against the law in WA for a thirteenyear old to date a nineteen year old?

Define "date." Since the 19 year old is legally an adult, it definitely might NOT be alright with the 13 year old's parents (under whose 'guardianship' she lives) and it is most definitely against the law for them to be sexually involved. The 19 year old could be charged with statutory rape which is a felony crime.
