I need some advice about some gun laws. I used to live in MI but now have moved to Oh for job purposes. My dad and I are avid hunters/shooters and often borrow guns from each other. Can we still do this now that we are living in different states? I've read some stuff on the web lately that is very, very confusing. All kinds of forums disscussing things like state to state gun sales and gifting guns to family members. I'm not giving or selling a handgun/shotgun/rifle to my dad, just letting him borrow them. we've always done this. He has one of my rifles right now and I have a shotgun of his. On another forum the other day someone told me that legally we have to 'transfer' ownership with an FFL. I don't understand and can't really find any concrete facts. Why would I 'transfer' my gun to my dad? It's mine not his, I'll be getting it back. Plus doesn't that cost money to do?? Is this really a law? What's the world coming to? If anyone knows the facts I'd me happy to hear them. I was just about to lend my dad a pistol for CC for him to try out to see if he is interested in buying one of his own, seems perfectly legal to do. Or isn't it?
