It's all pretty simple and straight forward Chalupacabra, but important that you and your friend follow the law's procedure.
First, YOU need to find a FFL that will do transfers from a private seller. I believe Cut Above will, but some will not. Once the FFL is found, you will advise him to expect the package (containing the gun) to arrive, giving them your name, address, etc. and your friends name, address, etc.
Your friend MUST ship the firearm to your FLL via UPS. This provides an official paper trail for your FFL and your friend. The FFL will advise you as to how the package needs to be addressed.
Once the gun arrives at your FFL, you simply fill out the paper work, pass the back round check and take the gun. I think Cut Above charges $ 10 for the BR and $ 20 for the transfer. Oh yell, bring a trigger lock with you, if one isn't supplied with the gun. CA has a funny rule about all guns leaving their store with a lock??
How and when you pay for the gun is up to you and your friend, however I'd do a Lost and/or Stolen back round on the gun. It's free. Just call 503-378-3070 with the Make, Model and Serial Number.
Hope this helps.
