If you are considering purchasing a suppressor, silencer, short-barreled shot gun, SBR or other Class 3 weapon, NFA trusts are a way to purchase these items without obtaining your local sheriff’s or other Chief Law Enforcement Officer’s (CLEO) approval. Many CLEOs will not sign the certification necessary for an individual to purchase Class 3 weapons. The Davis Basta Law Firm is qualified to prepare a gun trust for your weapon(s), usually within 48 hours. An attorney will review your information and prepare a Gun Trust tailored for your particular needs.

How do I transfer my firearm to a Gun Trust?
You should consult with a Gun Trust Attorney and ATF to ensure compliance before transfer of a
firearm to a Trust. If a firearm made in compliance with 26
U.S.C. 5821 is to be transferred subsequently, the transfer must be made in
compliance with the provisions of the firearms laws and regulations. Specifically, ATF requires that you complete
ATF Form 4- Application for Tax Paid Transfer of a Firearm. Form 4 provides, “any person seeking to transfer
a firearm tax paid must complete, in duplicate, an application on this form for
each firearm.” ATF Form 4. A transfer
tax is imposed with respect to firearms transferred at the rate of $200 for
each firearm transferred, except that the transfer tax on any firearm
classified as “any other weapon” is at the rate of $5 for each firearm
transferred.
Additionally, you must have a valid
Trust. You can obtain a Florida Gun
Trust here.
How do I distribute
or transfer firearm(s) held in a Gun Trust to a beneficiary named in the Gun Trust?
You should consult with a Gun Trust Attorney and ATF to ensure compliance before distribution to a
beneficiary. If a firearm made in compliance
with 26 U.S.C. 5821 is to be transferred subsequently, the transfer must be
made in compliance with the provisions of the firearms laws and regulations. Specifically, ATF requires completion of Form
5- Application for Tax Exempt Transfer and Registration of Firearm. Form 5 provides, “[a] registered firearm may
be transferred without payment of the transfer tax if…(4) it is being
transferred to a beneficiary of an estate.”
ATF Form 5. Click here to ask a question regarding transfer of a firearm held in trust to a
beneficiary.
In a nutshell, Form 4 to put a firearm into a trust and Form
5 to take a firearm out of a trust!

Suppressors v. silencers
WHAT DO SUPPRESSOR’S (SILENCERS) DO AND WHAT ROLE DOES AMMUNITION PLAY?
There are a few different ways you can reduce the sound of a gunshot: simply sticking a potato on the barrel (which, by the way, doesn’t work so well) to adding a suppressor or silencer to your gun. The terms “suppressor” and “silencer” are used interchangeably and are used to significantly reduce the sound of the gunshot by the way they vent off the gasses. Both the United States Department of Justice and the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) refer to suppressors as "silencers.”
Keep in mind that a suppressor (silencer) does not completely silence the shot, but knocks it down to a whisper of its former amplitude. Often the loudest thing about a suppressed firearm is the sound of the action itself as it ejects and reloads for the next shot. Suppressors (silencers) are National Firearms Act ("NFA") items and are regulated by the federal government, requiring approval and registration. Suppressors (silencers) are illegal in some states.
While Suppressors address one part of the gun noise, subsonic ammunition addresses the other. The speed of sound is a bit over 1100 feet per second, so any bullet that exceeds that velocity will cause a mini sonic boom when it leaves the gun. You can eliminate a sonic boom by using ammunition that is subsonic. However, the use of subsonic ammunition generally will not be worth it without a suppressed weapon.
While suppressors are also referred to as "silencers," the latter is misleading because no firearm can be made completely silent, as the term "silencer" implies. Functionally, a suppressor is meant to diminish the report of a discharged round, or make its sound unrecognizable. Other sounds emanating from the weapon remain unchanged. Even subsonic bullets make distinct sounds by their passage through the air and striking targets, and supersonic bullets produce a small sonic boom, resulting in a "ballistic crack." Semi and fully automatic firearms also make distinct noises as their actions cycle, ejecting the fired cartridge case and loading a new round. Despite being misleading, the term "silencer" is still widespread.
