: Michigan Law Q How To Register An Unregistered Handgun snofrog 07-07-2007, 01:03 PM I have a friend... who has a handgun handed down through a few generations but has never been registered . how does my friend go about getting it registered . there is no paperwork on the gun but its history is quite clean ? M snow4brains 07-08-2007, 02:02 PM All it should take is a trip to his local Sheriff Dept with the unloaded handgun in a locked case/box. He'll have some paper work to fill out, and they'll run a NICS check on him and that should about cover it. Oh make sure the gun is unloaded. And just in case I forgot to mention it, make double sure the gun is UNLOADED! :p Calling the Sheriff first may save a trip. crnsuperduty 07-09-2007, 08:02 AM It should be that easy. I received a handgun from my grandfather when he passed. They didn't give me any hassle at all! I was plesently surprised. Having my CCW may have been helpful. dooman 07-09-2007, 05:28 PM I have a friend... who has a handgun handed down through a few generations but has never been registered . how does my friend go about getting it registered . there is no paperwork on the gun but its history is quite clean ?

Anyone could sell to anyone and no paperwork was required. Im not sure if other states do this as well or not. dooman 07-12-2007, 03:03 PM Here in IN about 8 years ago they quit requiring used handguns to be registered.
