Father in law wants to give me his rifle? i want to keep it leagal.

Ok So my father in law has a few rifles and pistols. He is an old timer and has had them for many years. We both live in MA but I am not sure his firearms have ever been registered with the State.
Because he is in his mid 80s and going into an assisted living facility he wants to give them to me. I have my LTC in MA as well as a C&R (never used). How can I legally take ownership if these firearms? Do I just need to file a FA-10 for each of them? or do I even need to do that?

Any advice would be appreciated.
Does the FIL have a valid LTC?? If he has 4 or less guns, why not just transfer them to you via the online gun portal. If he has more than 4, transfer 4 to you privately, then go to a dealer for the rest?

If he no longer has a LTC, then go to a dealer and transfer them all to you?
