Gun Trusts in Collier County

We want to give a "Thank You" to John at http://www.classiiidealers.com/ for alerting us to some information we were unaware of regarding Collier County.  He noticed an advertisement of ours regarding gun trusts, and wanted to ensure that we were aware of, and properly informed others of the fact that there are other methods of acquiring class III items which don't involved having a gun trust

As some of you are aware, our blog posting on March 26, 2010 dealing with "Do I need a gun trust?" does refer to the fact that a gun trust isn't the only way to acquire class III items (our website does as well).  Another method is to utilize a corporation, or getting the law enforcement certification that many law enforcement agencies are reluctant to give.  Based on what John informed us of, the Collier County Sheriff's Office does give the certification for machine guns, but not for silencers.  This is good information for someone to know of if they reside in Collier County.  We always welcome additional information from our friends from various gun dealers and gun websites, like http://www.classiiidealers.com/, to be able to provide good information to anyone interested in a gun trust

It is always a good idea to look into all of your options available when deciding on whether to utilize a gun trust or not.  What may be a good option for one person, may not be a good option for another.

What is the best name for my gun trust?

The name of the gun trust is entirely up to you.  For many people, one of the main benefits of a trust is the fact that it is private, and not accessible via public records.  As a result, many people choose a gun trust name that does not have ties to their own, or to the fact that it is a gun trust.  However, many people also choose to name a trust after their family name, such as the “Smith NFA Trust” or the “Jane Doe Trust”.  One rationale for using a family name is that if it ever needs to be presented to anyone, it will make it easier for a lay person, or even law enforcement, to know that you are connected to the gun trust.  These are all valid considerations when naming the gun trust.
