Registering inhertied rifles

[9monwer]

I found 2 rifles in a the home the was gifted to my wife and I from her parents. I presume they belonged to my father in law. Can I just register them in my name?
Both are bolt action, 7mm and a 22cal.

use the operation or point of law form (I think that's the right name,) I did that when bro in law passed on, been four years since I did that, so far so good

Was it an actual inheritance? Or a gift as your post suggests, which contradicts your title?

Why on earth would you do that? Serious question

DOJ is looking for some weapons they don’t know about. Why volenteer?

nobody said they were undocumented. Didn't say when they were acquired. If they had DROS in the last 4 years, then they're registered to someone else. I wouldn't want to be in possession of a firearm registered to someone else, since with the newer laws it's not even legal to loan a firearm anymore for any length of time.

How would anyone know who the firearms are registered to if they are registered? I'm curious.

Why would you even consider 'registering' your private property?
