Thats a great gesture and thank her from all of us for her service.

What you may want to do is contact whoever is selling the 1911 that you want to buy for her and have it shipped to her FFL and have her pick it up from there directly, she'll do all the paperwork and your name isn't associated with it.

btw - I'm not sure but depending on where she is going after she graduates she may not be permitted to have her own firearm with her? I'm not sure what the Marines rules are about having personal weapon in barracks or on base? I'm sure someone on here could give more info on it as needed.
