Also from Mike Williamson (actually his attorney):
“According to the BATFE NFA guy at the NRA annual meeting (I’d like to buy a Z, Pat), a ridiculous number of NFA trusts, presumably built on a sample once shared on Arfcom, all have the same beneficiary. That dude is going to inherit a ridiculous amount of cash and NFA stuff one of these days (the BATFE believes the number is in the thousands for the guns alone). The BATFE rep also said that many store and manufacturer trusts, specifically [redacted company], are worthless and insufficient to meet the definition of a trust.”
Mike says: “If you have a trust, check it carefully. It is well worth protecting your investment by consulting with a firearms attorney rather than another type of attorney, the Internet, or a store.”
