Bought the gun without paper work? I wouldn't have done that, unless the gun is an antique. Not getting caught is not the same as not breaking law. You probably don't want to talk about that on a public forum.

I have been to gun show with similar kind of sellers. Buyer and seller set up appointment to meet at a FFL in town to complete the process. It is just like for-sale section of a forum.

PS. I looked up the federal gun law. It seems transfer of ownership within the same state doesn't have to go through FFL, unless required by the state laws. Sounds like the op is from Alaska, where there may not be such requirements. But I for sure will ask for a signed bill of sales to prove the start of new ownership, in case the gun is linked to police investigation.
