    I will try to be short with this. What if my wife bought a handgun from a friend of ours as a present to me ( dang I'm lucky) private sale and all ( We have known him for years) He won a handgun in a raffle, and was not something he wanted to keep, but was something I had mentioned to wife I liked. IF she bought it, I know a private sale is legal between the two, my problem is my buddy lives in Ill. But he does have a home an a business in Ind. So my question is, am I good to go with it as it is or does it need transfered thru ffl dealer?
    Just for fun lets say it's a ProTec Nebo strobe with a Taurus Judge hanging on to it.
    Thanks in advance.
