Only proposed new changes to NFA procedures is to do away with needing a CLEO signoff for the individual route (good thing) and requiring fingerprints/photos for ALL members of a trust (not so good thing).
let's hope they do away with that.

There is nothing hard about transferring NFA items owned by an individual. They transfer tax free on an ATF Form 5 to your lawful heirs.

Before and/or after death? That letter seems to only deal with estates. Am I misunderstanding your statement? It sounds to me that you are saying I can roll my current NFA items I own individually to a trust with a Form 5 tax free. I thought they had to transfer with a Form 4 and the appropriate tax (in my case $200 ea).
Thanks
The executor of your estate can transfer your individually owned NFA items to your lawful heir (another individual or trust) on a tax free form 5 AFTER YOUR DEATH. If you want to move them from you to a trust while you are still alive you will have to transfer them on tax paid form 4's.
