This is my first post here, so if this is the wrong section, please correct me. I felt that the indifiduals that populate this forum might have the most info on the subject.
I've been saving my pennies to purchase a Colt 6933 from GRTactical. It might be another six months, as my first child is on the way and convincing my wife that a $1000 (plus $200 stamp) gun is a worthwhile expenditure of funds. But I digress.
I watched with interest our President's gun forum. In it, he states that the "gun trust loophole" is used by criminals and shell corporations to access restricted things like silencers, machine guns, "sawed-off shotguns" (it just sounds so scary to say that...right).
Does anyone know of statistics to prove or disprove his statements? I live in an area where I can likely have either the local chief of police or sheriff sign off for me, and I've read on here and other places that others have done so in the local area. So, I may not even pursue a trust, but I would absolutely like to have an answer should anyone wish to discuss this topic.
Frankly, it sees likely to me that some might use such a procedure to acquire things like silencers from less-than-careful vendors, but when it comes to SBR's and automatic weapons... I find it hard to believe.
Does anyone have input?
