My friends Dad died and the will didn't state that "he" gets the guns. I'm sure that then the guns become Mom's because that's the general language for all of his possessions. I think that ONE COE with a list of the guns for the transfer is ok per my local police dept. One question though, I know his Dad had a few handguns from his Dad's Dad that are unregistered. Will that COE then get them legal? What if he didn't register/tranfer "officially" those "OLD" guns from Great-Grandpa? Can he get into trouble?
