In reply to Treg. I have a gun trust here in Colorado. I also have this concern about some of my weapons. I was required to do gun transfer (not sure what it is called) from my person to the gun trust. I had to do this through a gun dealer who did the Fed thing like a private party sale. Therefore, I am concerned about weapons I possess that are not in the system with my name associated with them. I have not put these into the gun trust.

In reply to derek2. Derek, Because a Gun Trust lists, who is allowed to use and possess them, it should be covered. However, each state has its laws as they pertain to permitting and carry there isn't a simple answer. The use/carry of a gun belonging to trust is something that the professional helping form the trust should be able to answer. It might be as simple as what was stated above or even leaving the listed carry guns off the trust.

I found this to be a very interesting article. I have a revocable trust that was made after my first wife died. I have spelled out in it which of my many guns I want to go to whom. Now you have convinced me that it is not enough and I need a gun trust. I will try and locate one here in Northwest, Arkansas and go from there. Thanks for the article and if you know of an attorney here NW, AR, please forward the name to me. I always like to get two attorney’s opinions before doing anything. I learned this the hard way and I have taken a few law courses myself many years ago.

Great subject to discuss, especially with ever-changing state regulations. Today’s legal transfer may not be tomorrow’s legal transfer, especially if the recipient moves into another more restrictive state. How is that going to be handled? It drives me crazy just thinking about this.

If one has a CCW, and the guns listed are designated as “owned by Trust…”, how does that affect the CCW?

The main question for me is…where would my collection be stored if I died tomorrow? I wouldn’t want the guns to be disbursed for a few more years.

Question concerning adding/subtracting to trust: “If I want to add/subtract to/from my trust, can I simply redo my inventory list relating to the trust and attach it to the trust… without notifying or filing anything, anywhere, to anyone?

Hello,
Can you recommend an attorney or legal service in the area I live. Which is the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area of Northeastern Pennsylvania.
I found it very informative. I never thought of having a Gun Trust. Thank you and I hope you have some recommendations for me.
