Gun Ownership Question
Posted on 1/10/13 at 6:27 pm

OB Wise Ones and Not-So-Wise Ones,
I am trying to determine if there will be a restriction on gun ownership in the future, and a law that prevents face to face sales.
I am stongly thinking about placing all of my firearms into a trust that will be able to survive past me. I am just trying to ensure that any new laws coming down the pike are unable to affect my heirs.
Thoughts? Will transfer to heirs or private gifts be outlawed? Can a trust circumvent this? I just want to be prepared.

Doubtful, especially not in this round. If they are successful on this attack, perhaps this will be on the agenda for the next round...

I should have requested that people state if they are Wise or Not-So-Wise in their posts.

I'm considering taking a very dangerous boat ride with all my weapons.
Sure hope nothing happens. Again.

Not sure about a "gun trust" but with trusts, the law changed several years ago. Property/money has to be in a trust 5 years for it to be passed on.
Think it used to be 3. Perhaps some of our attorneys can splain it mo better. My father was the attorney not me.

My understanding of the trust loophole was that the property was owned by the trust and not by any one person inside the trust. Therefore, its not being "passed down", its just that you're dead and cant use it anymore.

Here's an example. Parents put 400K into a trust in the name of two daughters. The daughters can write out checks to pay parents' bills.
Within the 5 year window, if the parent(s) require assisted living, etc. the government will use the money before government benefits (freebies) kick in.
AFter the 5 year window the government can't touch it and if the parent dies it becomes the daughters'.
