My Latest Purchase (or just pictures of your current guns)

[Rocketman]

I've been in the NFA game for a long time (back in the 12-18 month wait time era). Famous last words I know but have everything I need. My gun trust owns more than one can in each of 22, 5.56 and 30 calibers plus several SBRs to mount them on. My only NFA purchases this year probably will be my first short barreled shotgun (870?) and a couple more 22 cans. You can't have too many 22 cans. Of all the toys I own, I may have the most fun with my SBR'd Ruger Charger. It sports an 8in Feddersen barrel, a nice aftermarket trigger, a SilencerCo SS Sparrow and a folding stock. It's so quiet and accurate it makes you smile every time. Me thinks my next 22 cans will be a couple of Dead Air Masks

I dont get the whole "gun trust" thing - it seems like unnecessary paranoia about who has access or uses your stuff. Laws that while technically valid, the ATF would never enforce such technicalities unless there was a major crime committed. Like your spouse robbing a bank with your SBR or something - LOL!!!!

It’s more about estate planning- I don’t want my stuff held up in probate after I’m gone. Better to just identify the next trustee, and sign it over to them. Another benefit is they can legally keep it in their posession, which enhances flexibility (e.g. a trustee borrowing a suppressed hunting rifle, for example.)

Yea it's mostly about estate planning for me as well. I have 2 of my 3 children on the trust as trustees. When I'm gone it will be one less thing for them to worry about. They won't have to deal with the ATF at all unless they want to add some items.

Maybe when the demand slows down and if Florida does another tax holiday like they did in 2025, I'll grab a .22 can, but otherwise I'm good for now on the Form 4 side. My focus over the last year turned more towards LAMs.

However...I need to Form 1 this:

So that this has a correct Deployment Kit lower.

Impressive! I always thought M27 was unobtanium! How many times your mortgage payment did this set you back?

Then what is different then an ordinary family trust?

Specificity. Estate law varies by state, but for NFA items, they have to be specifically registered to an individual or a trust, with accompanying paperwork filed through the ATF. For that reason, it makes good sense to keep a gun trust separate from other assets so the BATFE only sees what the Settlor of the trust is legally obligated to show them. It’s nobody’s fucking business what other property and accounts I have.
