A married man with a LTC A ALP in MA. with a brain injury is declared mentally incompetent and put in a long term rehabilitation hospital with no chance of recovery.
He owns a half dozen rimfire rifles and single shot shotguns, some are C&R eligable, which his wife wants to get rid of now that the husband is in an institution. She also has a LTC A, ALP, but because of the law that only allows the private sale of 4 guns a year without an 01 FFL, is there any way she can transfer ownership of the guns to someone else, or sell them to someone else, without an FFL involved to save the badly needed money paid for transfers for her family?
What if she gave the guns to someone, and then she moved out of state, and said for the person to keep the rifles? Could that be legally done by just registering them with FA10 forms, or would the wife have to be found and sign the forms. Can someone legally give away more than 4 guns a year in that situation?
