NFA in Nebraska

A-FIXER:
Intersting on the form 5 to the lawful heir... then other than cleo then is the best way to do is trust allowing the family members to use without you presence then correct?

David Hineline:
A trust or corp. or a FFL with responsible persons listed is the only way I know of to have multiple persons possess.  What is best is doing to depend upon factors I assist with filling out of transfer forms, if ATF approves the transfer to the individual, trust or corporation, then my part is done. I do not have the legal expertise to know about keeping trusts and corporations going for generations to come with the purpose of NFA ownership.

JFT:
I have several Thompson Contender barrels and a buttstock and pistol grip. I understand that 16" is the cutoff length for rifle barrels. My question is: I have a Contender barrel, that is exactly 16". This is the entire barrel including the breech. Can I use this with my buttstock, or is this strickly considered a pistol barrel? Thanks, JFT

David Hineline:
The way the barrel is measured, is to close the bolt/action on the gun, then drop a measuring rod down until it bottoms out on the face of the bolt/action, in your case something different since no bolt.  Mark the rod, pull it out it must be 16" or longer.

JFT:
Thanks for the very clear answer. I new the barrel was very close to the limit. I appreciate your help!  JFT
