Cost is around $200-$250. Is this for NFA items or just regular firearms?
NFA, death, moving from one state to another, etc. etc. ....
...My family situation is a little "complex".
Are you looking for something which is just a gun trust for NFA items or for a multipurpose trust for general estate planning as well?
Every time you fill out NFA paperwork you need to submit fingerprints and passport photos regardless if you have a trust or not. I'm on my 4th can now and all have been submitted with the above information for all trust holders.Also when we purchase NFA we dont have to go to the sheriff and get fingerprinted. The trust eliminates that need since we've already gone through it.
That changed in 2016. Prior to 41F, NFA items purchased through trusts or corporations never needed fingerprints or photos. Now every “responsible person” on the trust needs to submit fingerprints and photos just like an individual (except it’s only one photo per submission instead of two).Also when we purchase NFA we dont have to go to the sheriff and get fingerprinted.

I'm not. But I have three trusts and haven't paid more than $250 for any of them.

Basic NFA Trusts are not expensive. That's what the OP was asking about.
As low as $59.95.
Anybody care to provide a concise definition of "gun trust" and what one accomplishes?
Thanks Frank!Here's a good brochure on the subject. I don't know if you consider this to be concise, but it was prepared by a knowledgable lawyer and is a good overview.
I thought that the initial purchaser of the NFA item who was doing a trust had to submit fingerprints; however, after the item was already added to the trust and the tax stamp was issued, a family member could be added to the trust at that point w/o having to be fingerprinted... That is, only people added to the initial NFA application had to be fingerprinted...That changed in 2016.

That was created prior to 41F and has some significant inaccuracies, the most glaring of which is the statement that trusts aren’t required to submit fingerprints or photos.Here's a good brochure on the subject.

Prior to 41F (which was implemented in June or July of 2016 — I can’t remember the exact date), there were never any fingerprints or photos required when using a trust or corporation.I thought that the initial purchaser of the NFA item who was doing a trust had to submit fingerprints; however, after the item was already added to the trust and the tax stamp was issued, a family member could be added to the trust at that point w/o having to be fingerprinted...

At least that's what I recall being stated back before the rule went into place.
