So if I were to attempt to get a trust done in the next week or so, would it all be for not? I wish they could just make this shit simple to understand, but no, no why would they do that.
There are still advantages of going the trust route, IMHO. E.g. I would want my wife to have access to any NFA asset that we own. But it sounds like even if you incorporate a trust, all officers/trustees are going to be required to submit pics and prints.
*Disclaimer: Haven't started an NFA trust yet.
