Yes.
Basically, under federal law a resident of one state may not directly transfer a handgun to a resident of another state (no matter where the transaction takes place). The handgun must be delivered to an FFL in the tranferee's state of residence. The transferee and FFL then go through all the usual rigmarole (4473, etc.) required in that state so the transferee can take possession of the gun.
