Yes, in most states you can legally gift firearms to family members. If a state has a purchase permit system for handguns or registration, one would of course have to comply with regulations related to that.

I keep track of not only what I paid but what current market values are. It gives me something to do.

I keep an updated list of everything I have by manufacturer, caliber, model and serial number. If for nothing else, for insurance purposes in the event of theft or fire.

You can gift a firearm to a family member in your state as long as they are legally allowed to own said firearm.

Are you from ATF?

+1 on keeping an updated list of values.
One fine day you will drop dead. They will throw dirt in your face and go back to church to eat fried chicken.
Some "friend" or even close relative will try to take advantage of your widow or significant other. They need to know what you have provided for them and what it is worth.

Guns? What are guns? Is that some sort of fruit?

 

[CAJUNLAWYER]

I keep a list-one of the columns I use is whether the sale was with a yellow sheet or by private party transfer-The ones by private party transfer hold a very dear place in my heart.

In my Will it says that all of my guns go to a certain person.

My tools are worth far more than the few guns I may own at my death. Sadly, I do not expect my spouse to get even a fraction of what the tools are really worth, I see no reason for firearms (which are really just tools as well) to be any different.

On the flip side, the stuff that is dear to my spouse wil hold little value to me, and I will be unable to cash them in for anywhere near what they should sell for.

I used to have guns, but now I'm afraid all I have is a list.
Just to remember them by

Fortunately my son or daughter or maybe my wife owns the whole shebang. When I'm gone I hope they get their junk outa my house!

Excel spread sheet with all pertinent data, and what I paid and a column for current value. It's nice to see you actually have a return on equity on something. Running about 30% presently, (but some of the guns have been owned for over 25 years).

Gun Safe free gun collectors software. Keeps records of everything you need and then some. I keep a back up copy on a memory stick just in case.

 

[Jeb Stonewall]

I keep a list of the gun and ser# and price I paid.
I told my wife if anything ever happened to me she knows which guns to give to which kids.
And if they want to sell them the best thing to do with them is put them on GUN BROKER.
That way she will get what thier really worth.
I'd hate to think she sold a $500 gun for the $150 I paid for it new.

I hope you spelled my name correctly.

The guns I thought that I had somehow just disappeared in early Nov. last year. No sign of break in, just a really weird situation.
