Friend without a PAL wants give me money to buy a gun for when we go to the range. I know I have to possess/store the gun and can't transfer the gun to him (because he doesn't have a PAL). I know we can go to the range together and he can shoot the gun.

Anything I'm missing here? Is there any risk in this for me?
