Basically, the trust owns the weapons ... not you. It is a legal mechanism for owning firearms regulated by the National Firearms Act ... suppressors, automatic weapons, short-barreled rifles and shotguns, destructive devices, pistols with foregrips, etc., etc.
ATF still has to approve the transfer ... but, if done right, it protects from criminal liability and will allow the weapons to be passed to future generations.

Excellent idea and service.
Using a trust also eliminates the requirement for local law-enforcement sign-off, correct?
What about putting ordinary firearms in a trust, so at the very least if anyone asks if you “own” any firearms, you can honestly and legally say no? Does that protect from restraining orders (Lautenberg)?
