What do you mean by registered? Are you talking about the check they did when you bought the gun from a dealer?

There is no such thing as registration...yet (except on TV shows). If you want to be able to prove that you sold it, then a simple receipt with the make, model, S/N, date, name, address and signature of the buyer will suffice.

Good info GunCat. One more thing, almost forgot. Make sure the individual is 21 for a handgun.
