All PracticesGun Trusts
We will handle all matters to help you put an effective gun trust in place.
Under the National Firearms Act of 1934 (the NFA) and Title II of the Gun Control Act of 1968, certain weapons are highly regulated—machine guns, silencers, short-barreled shotguns and rifles, and other weapons. To transfer the ownership of such weapons, you must obtain approval from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and must pay a tax. There’s an alternative that can help you avoid the hassle of complying with federal transfer requirements on these types of weapons—a gun trust. We can help.
You need the trust to be properly prepared and implemented, though, so you want an attorney with significant knowledge and understanding of these unique legal tools. We have a comprehensive knowledge of how to prepare and execute an effective gun trust.
