Do you have a safe to lock your class 3 weapons up in?
Yes but it (Ruger SR22) pretty much stays in my truck.

Is a Ruger .22 considered class 3? Serious question.

I have a CCL.

I think the point is if you were to have NFA weapons. And no a ruger is not class 3.

No, a Ruger 22 is not a class 3, in most applications and form.

But as I stated earlier in this thread, a suppressor is considered a weapon by the BATF. I was not clear what weapon I was referring to in my last post and caused confusion.

A better question would be is it worth the trouble to own/apply for Class 3 items without a trust. There really is no reason to not have one, there is zero hassle involved in having one drawn up.

This is the correct answer.

It's much easier to get done.
MUCH quicker in getting your tax stamp back, especially if it is e-filed, which my trust lawyer did for me.
It resolves issues of what happens to your NFA articles ( suppressors,SBR's, Barret type big bore rifles, etc) when you die. With a trust I assigned parties who can legally possess my items with my consent, even if I'm not present.
For example if I want to let my best friend use my 5.56 can on his gun for a hog hunt in Ga that I can't make he has the legagility covered to use it w/o me being present since he is on my trust. He just had to have a copy of the tax form and trust copy to show he is legal to possess it on his person if confronted by a LEO.
For the cost of the simple trust, it was well worth the $$ IMHO.

Well finally had the chance to shoot the 10/22 again with t h e Spectre 2 and figured out the issue. Seems the baffle system wasn't in alignment in regards to the machined channel that is on the ID of the baffles. While it didn't affect the Buckmark it made a huge difference in the POI on the 10/22. After aligning the baffles and reassembling the 10/22 is back to quarter sized groups at 50 yds.
Changing ammo to CCI velocitors for yote hunting brought it down to nickel-sized groups at 50, so once my VRL-1 gets here this week Wile-ey had best start watching his arse.
