you might have missed my point... unless you bought the gun after you moved away.if only!! We both were in MD until I retired to FL.

There is absolutely nothing that would "muck up the waters" if your son used a firearm barrowed from you in self defense.Since this will be a carry gun for him, we both just want to make sure this transaction is totally above board, god forbid he had to use it in a confrontation. Would not want any loopholes to muck the waters.
Otherwise, I love the idea of loaning it.
Give the gun to a FFL in Florida and pay his transfer fee. Ask the Florida FFL to ship it to a designated MD FFL (who you have contacted ahead of time). Have your son (with his Handgun Qualification License in hand) to go that that MD FFL and do the paperwork (77R and 4473) and pay that FFL's transfer fee.. Wait 7 days. Pick up gun. If your son doesn't have a HQL, he cannot receive the handgun.I am going to gift my son a handgun. I live in Florida and would like to know if I need to "transfer" it to a FFL in MD for him to pick it up, or are there other options?
Also, does he need to do anything after he takes possession of it?
He already has a MD carry permit and has purchased several handguns in MD before.

He said he has a carry permit, not an HQL, two completely different things.OP said:
