I am trying to sell my PX4 to a friend of mine (would be a first time owner, lets call him "Dave"). Unfortunately, Dave shares a house with his brother who has a felony conviction. What are Dave's options? Does Dave have to declare that he shares his home with a felon? Does Dave have to take any extra steps to protect himself? Any help is appreciated.

It's tricky. Most people would say to be safe, that the brother cannot have ANY access to the firearm or the ammo. That is to say, it should be secured in a safe/etc that the brother does not have the combination/key to. However, the letter of the law does not really spell out the relationship between access and possession. Tread carefully.WTS all BNIB: Colt S70 Repro, HK45c, Gen4 G19 -
See the wiki -- http://wiki.calgunsfoundation.org/Fe...and_ammunition -- so "Dave" knows the issues and the risks.ARCHIVED Calguns Foundation Wiki here: http://web.archive.org/web/201908310...itle=Main_Page
Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!Comment

A felon cannot possess a firearm or ammo. Many legal minded people believe access alone means possession, such as leaving it sitting on the table during a cleaning as you go to the restroom real quick. Conventional wisdom is to keep the firearm either on your person or locked up in a safe the felon has zero access to at all times. IANALComment
