Alright this is obviously my first post on this awesome forum. Got hooked on the hobby a while back when we were at a range. My brother lives up in WA and said he would buy me my first handgun. I told him what I liked and I have my mind made up on a Beretta 92 FS. I live down in Orlando, FL where I have been going to school. I still have Residency in WA via Drivers License and Registration on the car, so on, and you can only buy handguns in Florida if you have residency. So my brother is going to buy it in WA fly it down and give to me. Now my question, well the first one, what paperwork because he is giving it to me for free do we need to fill out. Or do we just print out a little written signature form? Second question, is it alright for me to have a legal handgun for awhile in a state i'm not a resident in?

Thanks All.

As you can see and read i'm new to the hobby and just want to keep things straight.
