You are wise to worry about "some obscure detail." The do-it-yourself law forms that you can find in any Office Depot are generalized forms to be used in any of the 49 states. But, they are not state-specific. Bear in mind that, while estate and trust law is generally similar from state to state (but beware Louisiana!), it is a creature of state law. Thus, if you want to form a trust which conforms to the law of your state, you would be well-advised to use a go-by from that same state as the laws do vary from state to state.
You can go to any gun show and buy a book on how to convert your AR to full auto. Or how to make a suppressor from 3 snuff tins, some bubble gum, and a little baling wire. That doesn't mean that it's a good idea.
NFA playtoys, especially the FA kind, are pricey and gonna get worse. My advice is, find a lawyer who knows about NFA gun trusts. (Or set up a corporation. That doesn't cost as much as people think.)
