Scenario:
Got a friend who has a relative in Cali. Said relative bought an Colt handgun 40 years ago from a private party before the libs took over.
Weapon has been in storage for almost 20 years.
Unimportant to the issues at hand, unless there is some falsehood in it.
Wants to give the handgun to my friend.
As long as the transfer is done in compliance with your State, Federal and local laws, which includes going thru an FFL holder, you should be good to go.
Will he get in trouble going to a FFL to ship it since there is no paperwork and he does not have a handgun permit?
There is no such thing as a "permit" to own a handgun, at least, not here in California.
