I am very curious about purchasing a suppressor (or two). Specifically, I want to get a supressor for my AR15 (Colt LE6920). I am also curious about getting one for my 10/22 (sounds like a threaded barrel, or modification of the existing barrel would be required).
I'll go ahead and ignore all the questions I have about what model is best, where to purchase it, what adapter might be required, etc. I'm most curious, right now, about how exactly to get started. Should I purchase the item in my own name, or place the item into a trust?
Specific items of interest:
1. What are the costs associated with creating a trust?
2. Are there ongoing (annual) costs related to maintaining a trust?
3. What benefits does using a trust offer?
a. Estate planning: transfer to beneficiary
b. Possesion/Use by another (put wife/child/other family member in the trust)
c. Others?
4. What negatives are associated with using a trust?
5. Is it easier/harder to obtain approval for each purchase when using a trust
a. NOTE: Currently living in Indianapolis... I understand Indy has a special process
b. Curious about how the process works outside of Indy as well, as I may move
6. What if I move? Does the trust have to be re-organized? If it isn't in a trust, is there special paperwork that must be completed?
7. Does anybody have first hand experience using a trust?
a. Would you recommend the attorney that created yours?
8. How does the NFA background check differ from other background checks I've submitted to (standard firearms purchase, Indiana LTCH, Utah CCW)?
OK... that is a pretty good list of questions. I'm sure there are a ton of other issues I haven't yet considered. Any and all input will be greatly appreciated.
