    As Iraqgunz says, this is not to be construed as legal advice.

    Sidebar- I'm going to see Bob Howell Monday for my trust, it's done

    Then I can send in the paper work for my first two stamps, my Noveske lower from DSG for SBR, and for the M4 2000 can I got at a GREAT price gently used from a local friend.....
    What part of Florida are you in, and how much is he charging you for your trust? If you'd rather not post openly, could you let me know by PM please?

    I found this place a while back who does them, but I don't know anyone who has used them.

    When I found them last year they only charged $195. Now their price is up to $395. I'm really kicking myself for not calling them last year.

    Any issues here? These things can't be copyrighted, correct?

    This guy specialized in firearm trusts; however, 600.00 seems a bit exhorbitant to me.

    One of my buddies is an attorney as well.....He's interested in the whole NFA/Class III trust process and said he'd have his secretary type it up and notarize it.

    ???
    Wow i asked the same question on another site and petty much had my ass hand to me for asking...

    I'm assuming that your father is getting a trust written up from Gun Trust Lawyer? If so, their trusts are copyrighted, so copying it would violate copyright law.

    Edit: I see you mention a local guy not Gun Trust Lawyer... sorry, missed that.

    If this was covered, I apologize for repeating it.

    The advantage to both you and your Dad being on the same trust is that you both have access to all items bought through the one trust. If you have separate trusts, you only have legal access to the items in your own trust. If one "passes" the survivor still has access to all the items in the common trust.

    My Son and I went through guntrustlawyer and I consider it $600 well spent for what is pretty much a bulletproof document. The guntrust documents are forwarded to an affiliated lawyer in your own state for review and revision, if required, to meet your states requirements.

    One other note, while the NFA Branch does a review of a trust, they make no ruling as to it's conformance to your state's laws, unless something has changed very recently.
