I want to start this with that none of anything said will be taken as legal advice, I am going to see a lawyer about this, I was just hoping to get a head start with information and possible suggestions.
Background: My girlfriend inheritted a rifle and a handgun from a relative out in Wisconsin. They are holding onto it until she can recieve it. She does not want to keep the handgun and would like to get rid of it, I have offered to take it as I have my HQL and its a nice piece and she is more than ok with this. She does not have any previous firearms certifications, licenses, or trainings.
Question: What is the best scenario to transfer her handgun to me? Would it be for myself to file with the MSP with the 77R and then go out and bring it back after everything is approved back home? I guess my main worry and question is can she sell or transfer a handgun if she doesn't have an HQL and doesn't want to get one? Or would going on a trip to Wisconsin and transferring it there in that state and then bringing it home be better?
Any information would be very much appreciated and I will be consulting with a lawyer later and bringing up possible avenues that I think of once there.
