Thanks to all. Now maybe he'll give me my Glock back that he's used in his other jobs.

You absolutely CAN buy a gun as a legitimate gift, as lonh as you have no reason to believe the recipient is a prohibited person. It's more of a concern on how it might look. How could anyone interpret buying a gun for a family member who is a current LEO as a straw purchase?
