As already stated, it depends on your state. I'm in Michigan where a purchase permit is required for a pistol which also "registers" it. I had a similar situation where I inherited a pistol. It wasn't a problem. I just took the information on it (i.e. make/model/barrel length/capacity/serial #) in to the Sheriff's Dept. and registered it - no hassle. Instead of listing the dealer, it was listed as an "estate pistol". The serial # was run to determine that it wasn't stolen and all was well.
