As mentioned above, in MO there's no registration and thankfully there's no longer a "permit to purchase" required for handguns. Shucks, they're even considering a permitless carry for Missouri residents.

She inherited that pistol from her husband, it's hers now. Just make sure she knows how to use it safely and accurately. Mo law allows one to defend oneself with no requirement to retreat, especially in one's home.

Tried to make it as difficult as possible to keep people from buying handguns. Gun dealer where I bought my Ruger told me he was thinking of suing him for going beyond what the law required.

Permit to purchase went away in 2007. NT (reply)

You had to get a permit to purchase a handgun (hopefully that is gone now) but you did not have to register the handgun.

There is no "registration" in MO. (reply)

Good for her for taking charge of her own safety. If she is in charge of his estate, it is hers. Missouri law actually states that a resident can sell or give a firearm to any person that is not prohibited from owning one. That was a point I learned in my CCW class.

Caught off guard by my Aunt when leaving her house this afternoon......I tell her if she needs anything to call me, husband passed about a year ago, she grabs my arm and says yes. She ask me to help her with one of his old handguns and that she wants to learn to use it and keep it in the house for protection. Seems there was a incident a few months back where a guy went on a little bit of a shooting spree, though not that close to where she lives but enough that it caused her to worry about it.

My concern is if something happens and she uses the handgun and it is registered in his name she could get into trouble for using a unregistered gun. My question is this....what does she do to get it in her name? Does she need a death certificate to register it in her name? This is something, thankfully, I have never run into before, any advise????
