Thread: Proposed Examiner Assignments

    This has nothing to do with what the NFA Branch wants. They had bought into getting rid of CLEO a long time ago. The current NPRM is all about what the White House wants...

    If NFA Branch changed the requirement from requiring sign-off to informing the CLEO (as with 03 FFLs), fewer people would see the need for an NFA trust.

    I agree. These CLEO think they are sticking it to people by not signing when all they are doing is helping people circumvent a more rigorous background check to get the same legal weapons that are their right to own.

    I am blessed to live in Tarrant Count, TX. Sheriff Anderson is a huge supporter of the 2nd Amendment and gun owner's rights. He often gets my Form 1s and 4s back to me in a week. I have never gotten to meet him in person, but I hear he is a great guy and fair and professional law enforcement officer. I will vote for him as long as he continues to run. Because he will sign, I do all my forms as an individual and do not have a need to go through a trust. I am single, do not have children and doubt I ever will, so I do not worry about inheritance issues.

    So when you pass, what happens to your collection?

    If it's up to the state, I wouldn't be surprised if it would be surrendered/destroyed.

    Assuming that no trust is set up, there is always dreary old probate for the will. You do have a will, right? Your executor can pass the collection to whom you designate via Form 5's. It's not up to the state, unless you allow it to be.

    My point was that it sounded like estate planning hadn't been a concern for Jason, which would cause the state to appoint an executor were he to pass intestate and have no other lawful heirs.

    E.g. "if you haven't figured out a disposition for your toys when you die, us other collectors would appreciate it if you did so that they don't run the risk of being destroyed/lost."

    No, I do not have a will that deals with my firearms collection. I was thinking in the future I would set it up so my collection (both title i and title ii) of guns would be donated to the NRA or the National Firearms Museum. They could then use them or sell them as they need to raise capital for whatever they need.

    Do not worry, I do not own any irreplaceable transferable MG's. I wish I did though! I only own suppressors and SBRs. So nothing to worry about.

    However, I was thinking about having them pile all my NFA toys into my coffin with me! Well, and maybe my prized Colt Python too. I will taken them all with me. LOL

    I thought that he who dies with the most toys wins. Plus, if I have them in my coffin, the gun grabbers can not get them. LOL
