It depends on several factors and the question cannot be answered as you asked it. Most U.S. states don't require a license to own a gun, so as long as the gun isn't stolen and you otherwise legally possess it, you haven't committed any crime. However, in states that do require registration or a license, it depends on the state law. If you're talking about carrying a gun without a permit, that also depends on the state.
