My brother (who lives in upstate new york) is getting married and has expressed a desire to get a firearm. My uncle recently passed and I took ownership of several guns (well I will, waiting on the State for multiple pistol permit exemption). Anyway, assuming everything is squared away by then, could I transport and give him (for example) a .22 rifle without any additional paper work? Or at this point would he need to work it out with NY state law to "purchase" it from me?

 

I told him a pistol wasn't going to happen, so I'm not worried about that.

 

Thanks folks!

You would need to use a NY FFL dealer to do the transfer. Person to Person transfers between residents of two different states are a no no.

That's kinda what I thought, Thanks!
