the term "transfer" implies some form of transaction...is a gift from one family member to another now considered to be a transaction? i hope not.

geo: sad, if true...what 1968 federal statute are you referring too?

if it is the gun control act of 1968, then that only encompasses interstate commercial transactions?

here is a reference:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_Control_Act_of_1968

a gift from a father in one state to a son in another state is not a commercial transaction...

I read yesterday that the contiguous states transfer exemptions all ended in 1986. Of course, you can't believe everything you read on the internet. And I have even gotten conflicting information when asking the same question of different BATF Field Offices. Many FFL Dealers are uninformed and frightened and insist upon erring on the side of caution. How many times have we discussed the problems that often happen with pre-1899 Antique guns? Often, even educating the FFL Dealer and showing them the law is not enough to satisfy them.

It shouldn't be this complicated for law abiding U.S. Citizens to exercise their 2nd Amendment Rights. And now we have Obama and all of the Democrat presidential candidates calling for even more restrictions and barriers.

Ed, isn't this kind of restriction and regulation of law abiding citizens exactly what you support? This is from Misfires post 407727 --

Misanthropes have a need to loathe, and find some justification in doing so. Misfires is gone; the board better for it. Let's not bring it here.

Birds of a Feather flock together, eh King? Do you really think you can hide from all of the anti-gun rhetoric you posted in Misfires because you think it is gone? You act as though you are happy about it, but over half of your 7564 posts were made there. And quite a few of those posts were to support and defend the crazy legislation that prevents a law abiding father from giving his law abiding adult son a gift of a shotgun. You even went so far as to proclaim that we who cherish and defend our Gun Rights have abandoned Jesus' teaching.

By the way, I am not a misanthrope. I don't hate or distrust humanity, but I do loathe anti-gun trolls and atheists who invoke Jesus' name. Thanks for the ad hominum attack.

Transfer of ownership numb nuts. Money involved or not.

Only the real lawyers on this site should give legal advise and trying to get around gun control issues these days is thin ice territory. When I asked about shipping a gun to my brother in FL my lawyer told me to send it to his gun club which was a FFL, we looked it up. They handled all the paperwork. Does you son belong to a gun club which offers member such a service?

As to dealers who decline to sell guns to ca bidders I'm all for it. The fewer bidders the less competition I have for guns that interest me. Maybe we could convince them to exclude 48 other states so I am in the only state allowed to bid on all guns. wink Wish they'd hurry up with that because money is running low and there are several guns listed I'd like to buy with no bidding competition.

and the federal gun control act of 1993 also only regulates commercial transactions...

as the gift giving season is now upon us, one wonders if there is any federal statute or ruling that regulates the interstate transportation of firearms as gifts?

if so, then santa could be in big trouble with the feds...
