".22 suppressors get very dirty very fast. "
I have a Gemtech that I cannot take apart, but after a few thousand rounds I have no need to. I am sure it is dirty, but what do I care?? Accuracy is fine.

1.what is the NFA and or NFA item
2.cops cant refuse to sign a legal license or they can be sued and be civil liable,what does a gun trust protect you from right you have been denied 3.any person legaly eligable to own a gun may shoot it with you or borrow it with your permission.in a state that requires a formal FID card anyone with an FID can handle and or borrow your gun with your permission,unless its a gun attached to a LTC permit.LTC guns may only be handled by the person with the LTC,but uncle bob is always welcome to borrow your 30-30 for that whitetail hunt in maine next fall. 4.i am so glad i have no interest in handguns and automatic rifles,no and i dont have to worry about silly laws. 5.after reading your full article i still dont see have a trust fund gets around overly strict gun laws or crooked cops |

1. NFA: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Firearms_Act
National Firearms Act. an item described as an "NFA item" falls under the National Firearms Act. Includes: Machine Guns Short Barrel rifles/shotguns Suppressors Destructive Devices Any Other Weapons (AOW). 2 The CLEO can refuse to sign off on an item, and they do in many cases. You can look at the page they sign for a Form 4 here (page 2): http://www.atf.gov/files/forms/downl...f-f-5320-4.pdf There are other officials to ask going up the chain, and there may be legal recourse, but it is generally much easier to use a trust. Also cheaper than taking your city/state to court for a refusal of signature that they can legally defend. 3. No, anyone cannot borrow it. That may be the case in your state with regular guns. Its not a "regular gun", and there are rules about who can and cannot have access, and when, including that you must have "possession" to avoid violation of the law. I am not familiar with "License to Carry" guns laws(apparently per MA law?), but that is not the same situation as with an NFA item. In many normal states, a "regular gun" includes a pistol you may choose to carry, and there is no license specific to a particular gun here in TX. 4. Cool story. If this is not your interest, the NFA section of a forum may not be for you. But enjoy reading about it, and maybe one day you will want to. 5. Then dont worry about it, and enjoy firearms in the way that suits you. |

i understand.i know you could never let someone borrow a handgun or automatic rifle.i was talking about single action hunting guns only and a far as i know you may barrow or lend out those guns if the barrower is a eligable gun owner

Tom, please explain so I can understand why I'm wrong. I have zero personal experience with CLEO sign-offs (it's almost impossible to get here and everyone uses a trust).
With a CLEO sign-off there's only one person who can posses the silencer. So if a person not on the Form 4 has full access to that silencer without the Form 4 holder home, wouldn't that count as possession?

I think the ATF would have a tough time charging my wife (who has the safe combo) with possession of my NFA items just because i was not at home.
If she took one of my cans to the range without me and got caught with it... Then yes, she was unlawfully in possession. I agree with Theo...a trust is easier to manage and use then trying to go the personal route. Also the trust (upon my death) is a non-probate asset. Simplified transfer to heirs over personally owned and willed to someone |
