In most cases, no. However, a theft from an interstate shipment of firearms, or theft from a Federal Firearms License holder (dealer or manufacturer) IS a Federal offense.

Federal firearms laws on stolen guns?

There are no specific federal statutes, per se, regarding firearms that are stolen. Guns are considered "property" under the laws of all states, and as such the Possession or Receiving of Stolen Property is a prosecutable offense under STATE LAW. It is against federal law to possess a firearm from which the serial number has been filed off or is disfigured so as to be unreadable. Stolen and recovered firearms are considered "property." When recovered, if they are traceable, they are returned to their rightful owners.
