I'm trying to wrap my head around a situation a dear friend is in. Basically, I am looking for the proper etiquette in this situation.
My friend recently starting talking to a guy online. Topic of gun control came up, she expressed interest in learning how to shoot since she has never done so before. He offered to teach her sometime after they meet in person. Moving forward a couple of days, he tells her that he was out shopping and saw a rifle, thought of her, and bought it for her.
What is the proper etiquette for being gifted a gun? Does she need to register it? It was purchased in NC but she lives in VA. How does this work? I regret to say that I don't own any guns, yet, and as such don't know the specifics of how to handle registrations and the like.
