A relative came to me with this one over the weekend.  Couldn't find, or at least I didn't realize that was the case, exactly what I was looking for.

Situation.  A family member has a handgun that no longer wants it and wants to give it to a family member.  I didn't ask, but I am not sure if the gun is registered.  I believe it's a "bring back" service handgun from the Korean War.  I believe 1953 or so was the date mentioned. 

First question is what to do about guns that may not have been registered in the first place?  I was looking up the transfer verbiage and it mentions needing info for the previous registered owner. 

Second question is said receiving family member is an experienced shooter (why he was offered the handgun).  Entry into RapBack is also a negative to accepting the handgun.  What are some options?  The only ones I see are giving the gun to another who would be ok with registering it and doing RapBack or outright turning it into HPD.

The unregistered firearm will most likely be confiscated.
Could you reference this new law in the HRS please?

I thought this law was passed this year, but it didn't make it out of the legislature.  Maybe it'll happen next year.  .  SB1036 Clarifies that failure to register a firearm within the required time period does not relieve the owner of the duty to register the firearm. Allows the owner of an unregistered firearm to register the firearm thereafter without penalty.
