next weekend is going to be a benefit held for a local CPS worker who is going through leukemia treatments. i was asked if i could donate one of my pistols and after discussing with my wife we decided on one that we bought for her and she didn't like very much.

my question is since i am donating the pistol do i need to go through an FFL and will the winner have to go through a background check?

the event is being held at the local Elks lodge which is also a 51% place, which i don't think will be a problem since it will be in a box with the trigger lock installed.

thanks ahead of time for all the input
