Application / Regulation advice New gun ban

Just wondering what options one has if they potentially possess a firearm that has made the ban/restricted list. I'd ideally not like to sell it back to the gov't if I can avoid it, and am holding out for the law changing in the future. However I recently saw something that said the gun must be permanently disabled. I was planning on just removing the firing pin to disable the firearm, however I heard the barrel must be welded shut to permanently disable it. Please advise me if possible. What other options do I have with the firearms? Would I be able to transfer them or gift them to family I have in the states? Thanks in advance.
