rancilio Report post Posted April 20, 2020 Yes, all trustees (ATF defined as Responsible Person) must complete a Form 23 (Responsible Person Questionnaire), a photo and 2x fingerprint cards. Both Individual and trust ownership require CLEO notification, no sign off. A common technique these days is to remove trustees, except for the settlor (sometimes called original trustee) prior to submitting a new NFA application... or just create a new trust with a single trustee. Adding trustees, after the approved Form 4 comes back, is between the settlor and whoever is added. No ATF, FBI, CLEO or anybody needs to be notified. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I assume would just be easier to set up new trust? Would that need to be done each time you wanted to purcha new NFA item? Anyone recommend a solid person other than Mr. Silencer to set up new trust and purchase from? Preferably Northwest phx? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s a question that I’ve been researching. Why don’t we discuss it when you call me after you receive my approved Form 4? The one I mentioned in the OP that was approved on the 6th was the one you sold me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ll tell you what you need to know to make it easy. I generally see forms 1-3wks following approval. 2 hours ago, deserttacoma84 said: Did that just change in last few years?

Anyone recommend a solid person other than Mr. Silencer to set up new trust and purchase from? Preferably Northwest phx? Ruling 41F in July 2016, changed a few things. Depending on the verbiage of your trust, it may or may not be easy to remove trustees. Most trusts that I have seen are written such that removing or adding a trustee is fairly simple. The trust you send in with a new NFA application should accurately reflect the trustees on the trust at that time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
