Sorry, gator, but I don't buy it. If the investigators have the serial number of the gun, they have the gun. It is up to them to prove who was holding the gun -- fingerprints, witnesses, whatever. If such things are really a concern to someone selling a gun, the seller should make a bill of sale and have the buyer sign it.

In actuality, though, I very much doubt that investigators will pay much attention to someone who purchased a gun several years ago and who has a credible story as to what happened to the gun.

Responsible firearms owners who properly secure their firearms against theft and keep their own personal records of any firearms they've sold to another party have little to worry about and would not likely require a service such as your friend is developing.
Irresponsible owners and criminals would likely not even be interested in such a service (they're irresponsible) and probably deserve whatever legal troubles, inconvenience and headaches occur as a result.
Assuming her motives are pure, I wish your friend luck with her business idea but hold out little hope that it will prove very profitable. May she prove me wrong. :-)
