Description:

It comes as a surprise to many people that federal law permits civilians to own machine guns, suppressors, and similar items. They can be owned by individuals, business entities such as LLC’s and nonprofit corporations, and by trusts. Over the last fifteen years or so, the NFA trust has become the preferred method of ownership.

This presentation will discuss the legalities of owning NFA firearms, the process of forming an NFA trust, the operation of the trust, and the legal pitfalls in drafting NFA trusts.
