Virginia gun laws

It looks like we may be transferring from MA down to the Lynchburg area. Is there any gun registration or licencing I need to be aware of? Also will my out of state hunters safety card transfer over?

Thanks in advance.

No gun registration. No licensing except for hunting or concealed carry. I suppose hunter safety card could be relevant to getting a hunting license the first time around, check with your local court clerks office, I think, see what they say.

Like stated earlier, no registration or licensing of guns down here, unless it's a class 3. It states in the game laws pamphet that all other states hunter's ed certificates are valid for Va.
The Lynchburg area is growing pretty quick, with lots to do.
