At the moment firearms are considered private property so short of giving one to someone prohibited by law from owning a firearm (i.e., convicted felon) you are free to do with them as you would any other private property.

I am giving two firearms as gifts this Christmas and have no intention of doing any paperwork . . . the thought that we have gun registration in this country was conjured up by people of the same ilk who teach global warming to our kids and after it's said over and over and over people begin to believe it's so.
