Form 4473 has instructions on the revers of the document that states:

Question 11.a. Actual Transferee/Buyer: For purposes of this form, you are the actual transferee/buyer if you are purchasing the firearm for yourself or otherwise acquiring the firearm for yourself (e.g., redeeming the firearm from pawn/retrieving it from consignment, firearm raffle winner) . You are also the actual transferee/buyer if you are legitimately purchasing the f irearm as a gift for a third party. ACTUAL TRANSFEREE/BUYER EXAMPLES: Mr. Smith asks Mr. Jones to purchase a f irearm for Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith gives Mr. Jones the money for the f irearm. Mr. Jones is NOT THE ACTUAL TRANS- FEREE/BUYER of the firearm and must answer “NO” to question 11.a. The licensee may not transfer the firearm to Mr. Jones. However, if Mr. Brown goes to buy a firearm with his own money to give to Mr. Black as a present, Mr. Brown is the actual transferee/b uyer of the firearm and should answer “YES” to question 11.a. However, you may not transfer a firearm to any person you know or have reasonable cause to believe is prohibited under 18

Now, most every state, if not all, has a form or online way to transfer ownership of a firearm. How has the Supreme court ruling changed this? If you are the actual buyer, check off "Yes" on 11a on the 4473. Then after gifting the firearm, transfer its ownership legally. At an FFL dealer if necessary.

Not only no, but HELL NO. You just gave away the right to privately transfer a firearm, and allowed them to create a de facto registration of all lawfully owned firearms.

I will not comply with this ruling.
