I appreciate all of the info everybody. This was an honest question. My wife, again is from georgia but is a tennessee resident as of the last couple of years. Honestly we did not even think about the whole state to state thing considering this is her first handgun. I now realize that it most definitely needs to go through an FFL to get it into her name so its not a "loaned' weapon from her father. If its going to actually be owned by her ill take it to get it transferred. Again, I thank everybody for their input and I am just trying to do it correctly!

Royal Range will accept shipments from an individual and transfer them to you for I think $45, well worth the peace of mind to know that you did everything right.
thanks for the info! I was thinking about taking it to royal range and asking them anyway.

Not necessarily. You can take the gun to a FFL and have them log it from your father in law and then transfer it to your wife. When a FFL logs in a firearm they do not log how they received it just that they have it. They may want a copy of your FILs drivers license but it should not matter if the gun was shipped to them or walked in the front door. I know that is how it used to be.
So you're saying he doesn't have to be there? The only reason I'm wondering is again, he lives 7 hours a way and we only see each other on holidays. So it would be a royal pain in the ass to have to get him up here for that.

Thanks for all of the info yall.

Sounds like currently its legal as long as its still a "gift" and not officially transferred. But getting it into her name will still have to go through the FFL. Which means I will have to give the gun back to the father in law in Georgia, and have him ship it to TN....OR have him in TN and we both go together. What a royal pain in the ass

I'd say a $30.00 transfer is cheaper than a lawyer.
agreed and that is what i plan on doing. Do you know if her dad has to be present here? since we are in different states?

Okay, so seems like it has to be transferred to official be hers and "legal" other than a "temporary loan" of the gun. So, what do I do? Does my father in law have to be up here in TN and get it transferred here locally? Can we do this without him and just go to an FFL and get it transferred? Or do we have to give the gun back to him in GA, have him ship it to a TN FFL?

similar situation which I posed to an ATF agent. TN resident/father gifting his firearms to an adult daughter in another state. He said legal, no paperwork.
Thats basically it. Georgia resident father gifted the gun to adult daughter who lives in TN. We now have the gun here in TN. So this is legal?

The only way that handgun was legally transferred to her, was if she handed the guy a GA ID.
The facts don't add up here. You need to either talk to an attorney or go ask your local gun dealer if he will do a transfer.
Until that gun is legally transferred; its legal for him to loan it to his daughter. As long as no money changed hands.
No money changed hands at all. He purchased a gun as a gift for her, and we went and picked it out with him. He purchased from the dealer and then when they boxed it up etc he gave it to her. However, we live in TN and are going to get our carry permits. So I just want to know if any further action is required for her to legally carry this gun that was purchased by her father in law in another state.

Yeah, two thoughts.
The chances of it causing an issue? Not very high.
The cost of going to a local (in TN) FFL and performing a transfer? $30.00 +=$10.00.
The peace of mind knowing that there is no legal issue at all? 100% priceless.
Also, would we both have to be present for that? He lives like 7 hours away and that would be very difficult to get him up here. I'm just trying to make sure I am 100% legal carrying a gun from my father in law that was purchased by him in another state.

But again, we were in GA at the time, her dad is a resident of GA and the dealer definitely knew he was buying this for my wife. She even picked it out. I believe on the application he checked the box that asked if the gun was being transferred to someone else as well. They took her ID as well. Just wondering if I still need to go through any hoops in TN
-
So I just need to go to a dealer in TN and pay for an official transfer correct?
-
Another question I'm confused on...My wife's dad purchased a gun in GA at a dealer, we were there with him, he filled out all of the paperwork for transfer/background check etc. Anyway, he gave it to us and we are in TN, is this handgun legal for us?
-
Also I have another question. My wife's handgun was purchased for her for christmas by her father, in the state of Georgia, and we live in TN. Is it legal to carry this gun for her and I? Her dad did fill out a transfer form and purchased this from a dealer.
-
It was technically a conviction because I had to plea guilty. However, it is completely expunged. Do I have to disclose this on the application to carry?

Hello everybody, new to the forum so I apologize if this is the wrong place for it.
I've decided it is time to have more than just home protection and my wife and I are going to get our carry permits. However, 10 years ago I was charged with class E felony theft (>500 <1000) because I sold a landscape trailer. Its a long story but basically my 15 acre property had an old beat up trailer on it that I used for months and ended up selling. Well turns out it was somebody else's and I took the fall for it. Anyway, I agreed to a judicial diversion and was able to complete a 1 year probation period and then had the record completely expunged. Now, I have run an FBI and TBI fingerprint check on myself before I got into nursing school and it all showed up clear after the expungement. I have since had no problems with my nursing school or anything else, and this was the only trouble I have ever been in. So my question is, am I eligible for a carry permit? Also, if not, am I still able to have a gun for home protection?
Purchase in GA?
