The law of possession is very complex as is GSR evidence. Both have a multitude of issues. Your friend needs counsel.
Re: Access to firearm felon
Whether your friend can beat the charges is hard to say, but the lack of fingerprint evidence is not as important as you seem to believe. It's surprisingly hard to get good prints off of a gun, and many possession cases don't involve such evidence. Guess how most of them turn out.
The evidence that matters is what the police do have, not what they don't. There are plenty of other ways to prove someone possessed a firearm. Residue is one way, and the police may have additional evidence you don't know about.
