A simple bill of sale signed by both parties is a good way to document the transfer. If you are transferring a gun to someone in Texas, make sure they are legally allowed to own a firearm. While private sales and gifts do not require background checks, it is important to document the transaction for your protection.
Many gun owners in Texas ask, “How do I register my gun?” In Texas, a gun buyer or seller does not have to go through a registration process for firearms. And the state does not register firearms to an owner.
No, you do not have to register it. There is no gun registry in Texas or at the federal level. Therefore, there is no one for you to register your gun with. Legally, there is nothing that you have to do in a private sale or when gifting a firearm as far as recording the transaction.
Since September 1, 2021, a permit is not required for a person, both residents and non-residents, 21 and over to carry a handgun either openly or concealed in most places in Texas, granted they do not have any prior felony convictions.
Understanding NFA Firearm Requirements: ATF Form 1 vs Form 4. ATF Form 1 is designed for individuals wanting to make or register an NFA item, such as a silencer or short barrel shotgun.

Many gun owners in Texas ask, “How do I register my gun?” In Texas, a gun buyer or seller does not have to go through a registration process for firearms. And the state does not register firearms to an owner. Other states, such as Illinois or New Jersey, require gun owners to register with the state.
Yes. It is legal to make a private sale or trade to anyone 18+ in Texas. 18-20 are not allowed to buy from an FFL, but perfectly legal for private sales.
There is no legal issue with gifting the gun, but the seller won't really know the truth except that you intend to give it to someone else once you buy it, at which point they will back out. Just buy it as normal, and happy shooting! :)
Generally, all firearms purchases and transfers, including private party transactions and sales at gun shows, must be made through a California licensed dealer under the Dealer's Record of Sale (DROS) process. California law imposes a 10-day waiting period before a firearm can be released to a purchaser or transferee.
