    This might help...

    (c) Duty of other persons.--Any person who is not a licensed importer, manufacturer or dealer and who desires to sell or transfer a firearm to another unlicensed person shall do so only upon the place of business of a licensed importer, manufacturer, dealer or county sheriff's office, the latter of whom shall follow the procedure set forth in this section as if he were the seller of the firearm. The provisions of this section shall not apply to transfers between spouses or to transfers between a parent and child or to transfers between grandparent and grandchild.

    No paperwork required. As long as you and dad have the same story, nothing you need to do.

    Handgun transfers between spouses, parent/child, and grandparent/grandchild don't need any paperwork.. You're good to go..
