So my father recently passed away and there are a couple of guns that he had given away to us kids years ago (a couple in the 90's and 1 in 99 or 2000).
I now live in Oregon, with the gun he gave me. My sister lives in Cali with the one he gave her. My brother is in the Phillipines and the gun he gave him at temporarilly at dad's house (with mom) but he's a Cali resident.
Since dad's now gone and can't verify that he gave these weapons to us, and when, is there any concern about having them in Cali and not registered? I left Cali before registration was mandatory like I understand it is now and neither my mother, brother, or sister has a clue about the laws in Calif and I'm in Oregon.
Also, we understand that anything (weapons) mom gives us now would need to go by current laws with interfamily transfer, HSC for my brother and sister, FFL for me (interstate), etc. I'm just concerned that they might try to snatch some of the ones he gave us years ago if they ever come across them. (I open carry in Cali when I'm visiting). I'm wondering if MOM has to go down and transfer all of the guns to herself since I'm almost positive they were all purchased in dads name.
To complicate things, he was Retired CHP and may have had to "register" anything he carried as a BUG or while off duty. I have no idea.
