Re: trust backround check?
that might be another problem i did not think about, im 22 my wife is 19, do i have to wait till she is 21 to add her to the trust then? if so is there no way for her to use my can legaly while im not there. say im out of town working and she wants to go to a LR match? has anyone added people to there trust AFTER they have got there form 4 back? if so what was required?

Re: trust backround check?
You are buying the suppressor as trustee of your trust and assigning it to the trust using an assignment sheet. Your wife cannot have access to the suppressor, except when you or another trust member are present, until she is 21, therefore she can't be on the trust until she is 21.
You can add people to the trust, as co-trustees/settlers, at anytime, but since it is a NFA trust, they must be of legal age, and meet all other legal requirements to be in possession - non felon, etc.
Legally she can't even have access to the safe that the NFA item is stored in until she is NFA legal and a co trustee of the trust.
I recommend you go through a lawyer with knowledge and experience in NFA trusts. My Son and I went that route and it was worth every cent.
It is also recommended that only NFA items be assigned to the trust.

No. A trust is an entity not a person. You cant background check a piece of legal documentation.

Re: trust backround check?
that was my understanding when we set mine up, my class 3 dealer set it up for me for free, and there is no background check, no fingerprinting, no passport photo bullshit sheriffs signature etc....... but same rules/laws still apply, no one under 21, no felons, blah blah blah
