Depends on where you live. In MOST of the US, there is no requirement to register ordinary firearms. Some states DO require that you register them. Some do not permit private sales- most do. Tell us what state, we can give you a better answer.

Is it legal to walk around with a gun in the open in Colorado?

Yes, Colorado is an open carry state. As long as you are legal to own a gun, you can open carry. Additionally, though the law states that you have to be 21 to buy a handgun, this is not technically true. You have to be 21 to buy a handgun, ONLY if you are buying from a FFL dealer, that is to say, a gun store, pawn shop, or sporting store. You can be 18 and buy a handgun from a Private Seller. Meaning another citizen. That being said, you should be careful about buying weapons from random people, whether they are advertising online, or in the paper. It is also not necessary to register a firearm in Colorado.
