Yep correct, not in the trust. And I believe thousands or maybe even millions of pistols were not put into a trust prior to the rule.
Why would you put a perfectly legal item into a trust?
Personally, I believe it wasn't an oversight but done purposely.
no argument from here, and originally their answer was NO individual only, but they backed off after pressure from many. (https://www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/can-i-register-my-firearm-“stabilizing-brace”-my-trust) reason I keep posting that link is look at the date --- march not earlier so that mean several have placed pressure on them for trust approval
Although I know of at least a couple of folks whom do assign their title I firearms to their trust. When I asked them why it always boils down to some lawyer and the catch phrase of inheritance. Leave it up to Lawyers to muddle the waters, just so they can make a buck. And have seen several Internet Lawyer sites advocating to put Title I into the trust. To me I thought that is what a will was for.
But in the past I have never used a trust for any of my NFA stuff. Now though with the long wait time on suppressors, I'll probably use one if I purchase another one, but it wont be a single shot trust. My reasoning is simple if I use a trust with at least one other person as a responsible party and I freaking die before our friends at the lovely ATF get a round 2 it to approve. haha Projected approval time of 270 days read that as 18 month in reality. With another person on the trust they can at least pick the blooming thing up for my heirs. Not that I'm planning on croaking but at 60 plus years old it's getting to be a stronger chance every year.
