Florida NFA Trust Lawyer

Florida Gun Trusts, also known as NFA Trusts, Class 3 Trusts, or Firearms Revocable Trusts, are an excellent way to legally purchase and own regular and Title II Firearm.

A FFL with a Class 3 SOT sells Title II firearms that include machine guns, silencers (suppressors), short-barreled shotguns (SBS) or rifles (SBS), destructive device (DD), or an "any other weapon" (AOW).

A Florida Gun Trust does not give you a Class 3 license or SOT. Also a Gun Trust will not let you purchase firearms that are not permitted in your state including post 86 Machine Guns. That’s right A gun trust will let you purchase pre 86 transferable machine guns but not new ones manufactured after 1986

A Florida Gun Trust can help you overcome situations where the Chief Law Enforcement Officer in your area is reluctant or unwilling to sign an ATF Form 4 or Form 1. There are many other benefits to using a Gun Trust to purchase your firearms including protecting your family and friends from issues of constructive possession or other violations of Federal law.

Our Florida Gun Trust is Different Than a Revocable Trust or Other Florida Trusts

Our Gun Trust is different than a typical Revocable Trust. Many so called "Gun Trusts" are nothing more than revocable trusts with a few NFA words or definitions thrown in and still instruct people to break the law. People often ask about having other items in their NFA trust; we recommend that only firearms, magazines, and accessories be placed in a Gun Trust. The reason for this is simple, the people you want to use and have access to your firearms are not the same as those who you want to be able to sign checks or sell your property. If your trust talks about land or other non-firearms related assets, its a clue that you do not have a Gun Trust. Most other trusts do not deal with the many unique issues of regular firearms or Title II firearms ownership, possession, transfer, and use.

Our Florida Gun Trusts have been reviewed and modified by more than 100 Estate planning and/or Firearms law lawyers who are licensed in more than 43 states. Whether your goal is to purchase a single silencer or hundreds of Title II firearms, our Gun Trust can be customized to address your specific issues and unique circumstances.
