FAQ
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.
Cons: Regulatory Requirements: Obtaining and maintaining an FFL involves complying with a significant number of federal regulations. Failure to adhere to these regulations can result in the revocation of the license and legal consequences.
Do you have to register the gun in your name? No, you do not have to register it.
Can I have a gun in my car in Texas? The Texas Motorist Protection Act (HB 1815), effective as of September 1, 2007, permits any law-abiding Texas resident the legal right to carry a handgun inside their motor vehicle in Texas (without a Handgun License to Carry) or any other permit.
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.
If the FFL is transferring the firearm to an individual (either the person buying your gun or you if the transfer is for your gun), then a ATF Form 4473 and NICS background check (with some exceptions) must be completed.
