Re: "Gifting" a firearm across state lines
Too bad he didn't just give it to me when I lived in FL. Then I could have just brought my gun with me to TX. Ugh...
Okay cool. If he ships to an FFL in TX, does it have to be overnight?

Re: "Gifting" a firearm across state lines
Bummer. So does he have to ship it to FFL in TX, do we need to use one in FL, or can I bring it to one here after transporting? 
I am trying to make it as easy for him as I can. He's had the thing in a box in the corner of his attic for like 10 years.
Is it highly inadvisable to "just do it"?

"Gifting" a firearm across state lines
My boss is in FL. He has a revolver that he just wants to get rid of (that's all he knows about the gun...that it's a revolver). The next time I fly to Florida, I am planning on just bringing it back with me. FL and TX both allow private transfers, and neither require registration of hanguns.
So far as I can tell from reading TX and FL law, there is no problem with him handing me the gun as a gift, and me bringing it home (assuming I do it in compliance with TSA's rules) , and no need to involve an FFL. But I figured I'd run it by you guys and see if any of you had any input. Thanks!
