Or he could just not worry about it. As I suspected, registration is not a requirement in Texas. The only thing you need a FFL for is when you *receive* a firearm through the mail.

I had bought my girlfriend a glock 26 under her name as a gift, the firearm is under her name i just paid for it, so it turns out it doesn't fit her hand as well as she'd like it too, she likes the Kahr PM9 she has small hands. so she told me i could have her glock 26 to carry if i wanted to i said sure! So here's my question if were to be carrying this gun and happen to use it in self-defense would i get into any kind of trouble if the firearm is not registered under my name?
I wasn't aware that guns require registration in Texas. I haven't registered any of mine. Your only restriction in what pistol you can carry is determined by the pistol you "qualified" with. If you qualified with a semi-auto, you can carry anything. If you qualified with a wheel gun, you can only carry a wheel gun (I personally think that's absurd, but that's the law).
