I've been looking into them as they "seem" to make the process of purchasing NFA/Class III firearms, silencers, SBRs, etc., a much smoother one. For instance, you don't have to get your CLEO to sign off on what you're trying to purchase. There are other benefits as well, and the price to set one up doesn't seem outrageous or anything.

Thoughts?

Just get a trust set up by an attorney. You can add beneficiaries to the trust so NFA items can be handed down to kids, etc.

I think average cost in LA is about $300.

If i ever get into NFA weapons that is the route i would take for sure. Without it your descendants would have a hard time hanging onto those items.

I have a trust setup with two friends. We pooled money together and around the end of this year we will have 3 suppressors (rimfire, .223/5.56, .308). Can't wait to get the tax stamps in and do some hog hunting!

I used Terry as well to setup my trust as well. Great guy very easy to work with and you can't beat the price. I've heard of other attorneys asking for $600+ to setup a trust.

Everything posted so far is correct. Fl is much easier than la though. I think that you can use a will maker to setup a tryst in Fl. I'm at work and on phone but I'll come back to answer any questions and such later tonight.

Terry did mine as well. I am currently waiting on a AAC SDN-6 and a 9" 300BLK upper.
