Well Steve, as someone else mentioned, you might very nicely and gently offer to take the firearm back. If that doesn't work, you could give one of her neighbors $100 to break in and steal it for you, although that might then cost you a few more $100 to get it back from them.

Realistically speaking, you should have taken the receipt for the firearm that I'm sure that you are still in possession of, gone through an FFL (Federal Firearms Licensed) dealer and TRANSFERRED legal possession from yourself to herself, period. Might have cost you or her $20, maybe $50, whatever that specific dealer charges, and you might still try talking her into it, even if you have to pay the $20 or $50 out of your pocket. If she can pass the FBI instant back ground check, they will legally transfer the firearm to her name. If she can't or doesn't pass the back ground check, since you have the receipt and the firearm is legally yours, they will hand the firearm back to you, not her. You said that her home has been burglarized multiple times, and I would expect it to happen again. There IS a firearm in that residence that as far as everyone is concerned, IS yours. If it is stolen and used in a crime, found, whatever, some people are going to come visit you asking questions that you will NOT have valid answers to, and you're going to be on the hook. She might be as well, but you WILL be on the hook.

I live in Indiana and we do NOT register firearms here, BUT depending upon how old the firearm is and when it was purchased, if there exists a RECORD of ownership, then that's where its going to come back. Recently, I gave a sister a sidearm and one to a niece as well, both family members, perfectly legal to do. BUT all records showed them as mine, legally. I thought about it, talked to them both, met them at a local FFL, I paid the $20 fee (what he charged to do the paperwork), they went through and passed the instant back ground checks, and the FFL transferred legal ownership from me to them, through him (legal record). DONE. You need to either do the same, or get the firearm back.
