You don't need an FFL to do the transfer. There is nothing illegal about gifting a firearm and no national database exist of firearm ownership, only a database of stolen firearms.
Assuming neither he nor his parents are felons, or otherwise prohibited from possessing the shotgun, it's legal to toss the gun in his trunk, drive to Florida, and the do the transfer at some FFL in FL. It also looks like it's legal to take it with him, and leave his shotgun at his parents' house to use during future visits.
