Missouri has no gun registration. Period. Full stop. End of story.
What some confused with registration is the now-defunct "permit to acquire a concealable handgun" from the sheriff's department. A few years ago that little part of MO Law was repealed. So long as a seller believes a buyer to not be a prohibited person, that seller may sell the handgun to that buyer.
Missouri also has no assault weapons ban. Period. Full stop. End of story.
So a "pre ban" status is completely and utterly irrelevant.
If your friend wants to sell the gun to a gun shop, go right ahead. It's as simple as taking the gun in and walking out with the money. There is ABSOLUTELY NO legality issue at work.
