How Do I Get A Suppressor For A Glock 19?
Yellowfin Would you mind giving us more details? This sounds cool.Best thing you can do for yourself is to get an NFA trust made. This allows for multiple users of the suppressor and considerably less paperwork and hassle.
Once approved go to dealer and pick up item you have paid for 3 months prior.
Like many legal transactions, the ATF will permit individuals, corporate entities, and trusts to execute NFA paperwork.
You can execute NFA paperwork as:
an individual - by far the most simple, yet sometimes complex. you need to obtain permission of your local CLEO and submit fingerprints to the ATF.
a corporate entity - a little more complicated as, essentially, the corporation is the entity executing the paperwork. You may need to submit proof of incorporation to ATF in order to execute the paperwork. You do not own the item; your corporation does. This is good and bad - good as you do not need CLEO permission or fingerprints. Bad as if somebody sues your corporation, the NFA item is a corporate asset and could be attached in the case of a judgment against the corporation. Good because there may be multiple individuals within the corporation that have the right to have possession of the NFA item. Bad because the corporate must continue to exist as a legal entity for as long as you want to keep the items in question - this means that you need to reregister with the secretary of state in your state, pay taxes, have board meetings, etc.
a trust - a lot more complicated as the TRUST owns the items. A trust does not require CLEO signatures or fingerprints, yet trusts are complex legal documents and most attorneys that prepare trusts don't know dick about NFA law. If a trust is found to be improper (not legally, correctly formed), you run the risk of the NFA item being confiscated.
There are a few yahoos running around on the net touting how great trusts are and how easy they are to setup and yada yada yada. The most annoying is a cat that is still in law school and thinks he is the bees knees. Trusts are complex. I'd do a corporate route way before I did a trust.
