I you feel a need for further documentation, a local gun store will do it for a price, while laughing at you.
I'm also an Orygun resident - live in Sheridan, near Lincoln City. Where do you live??

Keep the guns; never sell a gun unless it is to buy a better replacement gun or two. Take heed from us older wiser folks.

It's far more likely that a car will be used to kill someone than one of your guns.
The driver's license copy will cover you, with respect to liability. What the new owner does with your firearm cannot be your responsibility.

If you intend to conspire with the buyer to commit murder with the weapon, then do what he says.

As Doug Wilson stated, you can go to a dealer, have him log the firearm into his bound book. The dealer then has to fill out a new form 4473 (along with the background check) then log it out of his bound book, in the new buyers name. Some states require this for certain guns, some states do not. Yours doesn't.
What BHAVEN said, is the MOST I have ever done. Sometimes, it's just a handshake. Still legal in this state.
Dealers are charging anywhere between $10 - $100 for this service. Shop around. Who will pay this fee, you or the buyer?
Just FYI, dealers do not turn in their 4473s to the BATF unless requested to do so. If your mother bought the firearms new, and the firearm is recovered in a crime, the police WILL come to talk to your mother first. It's called following the trail from the dealer. YOU then have to tell them about selling it, and which dealer you used to sell the gun. They will go to the dealer and check it out. After HARASSING your mom, because that is what they do. Well, maybe.
And just to let you know, if I was buying a firearm from a private party, and they suggested going through a dealer, I better want that particular firearm REALLY bad, or I'd tell the seller where he could..........
