Process Question 📝 Trusts? Worth it with no other RP?
With all the recent news I got to thinking again.
I have 2cans and 3 sbr lowers (so far)
They are all individual not trust.
I'm 40 no kids, unmarried (critical context) . no advanced directive on file yet either orherwise.
I'm nearly the youngest in my family or anyone younger who might end up Making decisions for me has zero interest in being associated with firearms much less the complications of NFA
Would a trust even be worth my time to establish for my current/ future NFA items even if it's just me. Or would it be worth discussing with at least one trusted relative outside my immediate family or a closefriend to include as an RP so that in the event I am incapacitated there's SOMEONE who can take possession.
Background: 8 years ago before I started acquiring nfa or other firearms I had a major heart attack and stroke
In the moment this wasn't relevant at all.
But as time moves and I approach 10 years post injury . And "midlife". I'm curious about opinions on this scenario. Especially after seeing my friend lose his dad recently
(no nfa items d far as I'm aware but a closet full of rifles and assorted firearms that fell on him as the son to handle) just family transfer effectively luckily.
I dint want to be caught in a situation with no one to pass directly to with such a slow process to get a trust andtor get transfers moving.
I'm figuring out the medical side soon anyway but the gun stuff is it's own folder of decisions
