[QUOTE="Munch, post: 2742633, member: 36823"] If you are going to simply purchase one suppressor and no other NFA items in the future, then a generic, "canned" trust offered by an internet vendor might be good to go. But, NOT always! If you plan to hold additional NFA devices, ie., short barreled rifle, pistol with arm brace (new regulation), short barreled shotgun, and additional suppressors, then you may want to have a lawyer in your state draw up the trust. Ultimately, NFA Branch must approve your trust. If the legal wording is just slightly incorrect or fails to address stipulations for your state, the application will be returned and you just wasted many many months. I'm not a lawyer. But I had a lawyer draw up my NFA Trust for $350. It has a few paragraphs included that pertain to the laws of my state. Plus, a personalized trust allows you to make specific instructions regarding your NFA devices in the event of your death that a generic trust generally does not include. The other good thing about a trust, it allows for a much easier process through NFA Branch transferring NFA items to your Trust's designated beneficiaries. If you were to submit your eForm 4 today, and once NFA Branch receives your fingerprint cards and passport photos (14 day to submit), the current wait time for approval is 270 days according to BATFE/NFA Branch's web site. 315 days if you submit a Form 4 in paper. Better get the paperwork going if you want a suppressor for next hunting season! [/QUOTE]
