A NFA gun trust lawyer, or a lawyer who specializes in the drafting of trusts designed to hold National Firearms Act (NFA) guns, may not be a regular estate planning lawyer. As NFA gun trusts are a specialized type of trust that may not be familiar to many general estate planning lawyers, you should contact an attorney with specific experience in drafting NFA gun trusts and advising clients about the proper procedures for handling NFA gun trusts. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives currently allows NFA guns to be owned not only by individuals, but by entities such as trusts. Using a trust to own a NFA firearm has a number of benefits, including quicker processing times, and no required submission of fingerprints to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
