Is it still legal for a group of people to fund a gift purchase for a person?  A designated person from the group would do the 4473 and then gift the rifle to their man.

This person is not a prohibited buyer, it's just a surprise gift for retirement.

Law does not require you to tell FFL it is a gift.

From the 4473 instructions for question 21a:

"A person is also the actual transferee/buyer if he/she is legitimately purchasing the firearm as a bona fide gift for a third party."

I was told by a salesman a few years ago that your better off just not mentioning it, I was asking about buying a gun for my Son.

Simplify it by getting the recipient a gift card or certificate in the proper amount.

Good idea, it's ordered but won't come in for a while yet.
