NFA Trust Explained

A gun trust is a special purpose trust designed specifically to hold firearms of all types. It contains references to statutes governing firearm possession and ownership so that persons who are not allowed to inherit a firearm do not become an accidental beneficiary. A gun trust keeps firearms in the family, but outside of the probate court. A gun trust serves several purposes. First, it is a private way to pass firearms on to your beneficiaries, outside of the probate court system. People with large collections of firearms, or very valuable firearms, should consider using a gun trust. A gun trust also makes it more convenient to purchase and hold more regulated firearms such as suppressors (silencers), short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and fully automatic weapons. These types of firearms are governed by the National Firearms Act (NFA) and require the purchaser to pay a $200 tax and obtain a tax stamp from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). With a trust, other persons can be made a trustee to be able to legally possess these firearms. If an individual acquires a tax stamp without a trust, lending an NFA firearm to a friend or family member outside of the individual’s physical presence is a felony.
