According to the lawyer I had to start drawing up the documents, contrary to my belief, I could not name the trust "I'm so cool NFA Trust" or any other name that did not lead straight back to me at a glance. It had to be "John Q Public NFA Trust" or at least "J. Public NFA Trust." Now that is different from what I had heard and read, but the lawyer said any trust he has done was based on the persons name, not a created name. I disagreed but thought it would be foolish to disregard the advice of the lawyer. So since I did not want my name engraved on any SBR I built, I decided to just buy factory SBR's as an individual instead of a trust. The other reason I wanted a trust was so my boys would seamlessly get the NFA items if I were to get shot and killed by a jealous husband. That way they could avenge my death the next day instead of waiting for all the paperwork. I thought I could list them as beneficiaries, and they would have access to the items legally but without control. There is no way to do that. I would have to list them as Trustees which grants them full control and ownership over them in order for them to be able to shoot them without me being there. I could not do that since they are not of age yet.
There are no fees involved with Class III transfers on inheritance, so I decided the whole trust route was not worth the effort/expense. It does allow you to skip the CLEO signature, but that is a non issue where I live and looks like it may become a non issue for everyone. I have heard some say the approval process is quicker with a trust. I don't think there is enough consistency in the process to be able to tell. There is a website where folks put there info into a database when they send their Form 4 off and update it as the check gets cashed, when it is approved, when they receive the form back etc. so people can see how long it takes. It seems from that site that the biggest difference time wise is who the examiner is.
I came to the same conclusion roughly....didn't do a trust either.
Trust you can pop other peoples names on. So 4 buddies could get together and split an M60 or something without an issue. Also, if you leave the country, your buddies can use the stuff on the trust without you being there

Yep, and if one member decides to sell the M60, he has every legal right. Everyone listed as a Trustee has all legal rights to everything in the trust.
I have a Glock 26 that I plan on using as my CC. I have ordered a crossbread holster but and also thinking about maybe trying out the Clipdraw. My question to Glock owners is have any of you used the Siderlock? It seems like a pretty cool option for not shooting yourself when using the Clipdraw or any other holster for that matter. Also looks easy to train yourself to activate/deactivate when needed.

That screams unsafe to me. I have a firm rule. When a gun is in your hand, you use your trigger finger to pull the trigger. That's it. Nothing else. Nada. Zip. Zilcho.
That is just me. Not a fan of the clip draw either. I have heard of the clip rusting up easily and if you want to carry IWB, there are plenty of cheap IWB holsters you can use and give you the added benefit of keeping your sweat away from the gun.

Im not worried about the trigger when the gun is in my hand. Im worried about the trigger when the gun is in my waste or going into my holster.
I have a crossbreed on order the clipdraw would be more for when I I dont know i felt like carrying in a little different of a way.
MY SPELLING SUCKS....DEAL WITH IT
Pissing off the world one person at a time.....Ill be with the next customer shortly

Well, Glocks have a trigger safety. So if they sometimes go boom when carried sans holster, then adding a second trigger safety would reduce the chance but not obviate it I think. If you feel safe doing it, then knock yourself out. I have been carrying a Glock for 20 years and I would not.
i went to the NRA range today for the first time, and it's a nice facility. got there around 10am, did the intro paperwork and waited around until i was called. i was on the range by 11am and there might've been a handful of people waiting for their turn. i left around 1130am and by then the place was packed with people waiting.
the range master gave me a lecture though because i used a precision rifle target while shooting a pistol. didn't think it was that big a deal, a target is a target, but whatever. can't wait to go back.
