Question for the law gurus here on NES. My sister in law has a shotgun, a 22 rifle and some sort of black powder gun. that she would like to give to me. She is in RI and I am in Mass. I have no clue about RI laws, I know she is not licensed in any way (guns belonged to her Ex who has been in China for 10 years). She needs them gone as she is selling house.
I am hoping that I can simply take them and EFA10 them into Mass, can I legally? Or do I need to include FFL(s). If I need FFL, I suspect I need both RI and Mass to handle transfers across state lines??? How does that work on her end where she is not licensed?
I want to help her out, (and would not mind having the guns!). but do not want to run afoul of the law.
Also, can I legally take them (from RI) and store them in Mass for her prior to actually transferring or FA10????
Thanks for any insight!
