Re: Trust question Ethically, I can't give you legal advise via this kind of forum, but hypothetically, if you executed a revocable living trust and retained the rights revocation and amendment, then, yes, as the grantor you have the right to amend your trust any time prior to your death of...

Re: Class III NFA Trusts I know . . . but I was answering them in order as I scrolled down. I was in a meeting and trying to be subtle . . . Hell, I'm the one that called the meeting and I'm the one chatting on line during the meeting !! ha ha ha

Re: Class III NFA Trusts One clarification: A guy drafting his own documents or filling in the blanks of a computer generated document is acting pro se, representing himself, which is fine. A gun dealer that gives the buyer the form and says "this is all you need" may be considered to be...

Re: Class III NFA Trusts Exactly.

Re: Class III NFA Trusts Well stated Jim.

Re: Class III NFA Trusts You can't "cite" to law to explain how to draft a document that serves your client better than a computer generated form.

Re: Class III NFA Trusts The agent I spoke with personally (face to face) disagrees with Ashton I guess. He plainly confirmed trusts are not scrutinized at the time the application is submitted. They simply don't have time to run all of those application through a legal analysis especially...

Re: Class III NFA Trusts That's true.

Re: Class III NFA Trusts I think hearsay is probably all you will find. However, I can tell you from a personal experience with a friend that having an encounter with ATF that doesn't end up in conviction still didn't make the experience enjoyable. He would have preferred to do things...

Re: Class III NFA Trusts I don't believe there are any court cases. My understanding is that frequently, ATF comes at someone with Thunder and Lightning and then gets a plea to a lesser offense to avoid something worse. ATF doesn't want clear laws and court ruling that define the statutes...

Re: Class III NFA Trusts There was indeed a prosecution sought on the east coast based on an invalid Quicken Trust. I am sure it was some other violation that brought the man to their attention - not that they were policing the NFA Trusts at random. I don't know the name of the case, and...
