Doesn't matter. If they are a resident of a same state as you are by being present in that state and making a home in that state, IE they sleep there every night for a reason other than visiting, they don't even have to have a driver's license for you to legally sell/give/transfer the handgun or rifle to them (in Texas). In private sales, there is no proof of ID or proof of residency requirement. Only that you are not knowingly or have reasonable suspicion that you are selling to an out of state resident or prohibited person like a felon or convicted of domestic violence.
If I moved to Texas today with the purpose of living there, I could legally buy a firearm from you, another Texas resident, tonight, even if you bought that firearm this morning - so long as you did not buy that firearm from a dealer with the specific intention of then selling it to me, then that would be a straw purchase.
