Under 18 U.S.C. 922(a)(5), considering my father died this spring and his will simply states "share and share alike" between the two of us, when it's time to divide the firearms can we simply agree between ourselves and take possession, then cross state lines with rifles in the trunk of the car?

There's no argument about who wants what. And we "could" leave them in the family home without crossing the state line. But that would seem a little silly. But shipping the rifles we used as kids to a local FFL so we can "receive" them is almost as inane.
