The California DOJ website http://ag.ca.gov/firearms/pubfaqs.php#top has a list of frequently asked questions on gun ownership and transfer in California. It has the answer to this question (which I have posted below). Keep in mind that the process is different if you are transfering ownership to a spouse or child. Those requirements are listed on that page as well. Hope that helps! I want to sell a gun to another person, i.e., a private party transfer. Am I required to conduct the transaction through a licensed California firearms dealer? Yes. Firearm sales must be conducted through a fully licensed California firearms dealer. Failure to do so is a violation of California law. The buyer (and seller, in the event that the; buyer is denied), must meet the normal firearm purchase and delivery requirements. "Antique firearms," as defined in Section 921(a)(16) of Title 18 of the United States Code, and curio or relic rifles/shotguns, defined in Section 178.11 of Title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations that are over 50 years old, are exempt from this requirement. Firearms dealers are required to process private party transfers upon request. Firearms dealers may charge a fee not to exceed $10 per firearm for conducting a private party transfer. Example: # For a private party transfer involving one or more handguns, the total allowable fees, including the DROS, safety, and dealer transfer fees, are not to exceed $35.00 for the first handgun and $31.00 for each additional handgun involved in the same transaction. # For private party transfers involving one or more long guns, or a private party transfer involving one handgun, the total allowable fees, including the DROS, safety, and dealer transfer fees, are not to exceed $35.00. The dealer may charge an additional dealer-service fee of$10.00 per each additional firearm transferred. (PC section 12072(d))

How do you unregister a gun in Kentucky?

There is no way to do so, since Kentucky has no registration requirements. You can transfer ownership by going to a Federally Licensed Dealer and filling out all the required paperwork and the receiving party receiving a "go" from the InstaCheck system. That way the gun will not trace back to you as ownership then resides in the transferee.
