David Hineline:
Ok so the CLEO signature is going away, but trusts and corps each person who can possess get to notify the CLEO do fingerprints photos and background checks to possess.

There isn't much to go on right now, so far as I can tell. The abstract is as follows:


--- Quote ---The Department of Justice is proposing to amend the regulations of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) regarding the making or transferring of a firearm under the National Firearms Act. The proposed regulations would (1) add a definition for the term "responsible person"; (2) require each responsible person of a corporation, trust or legal entity to complete a specified form, and to submit photographs and fingerprints; (3) require that a copy of all applications to make or transfer a firearm be forwarded to the chief law enforcement officer (CLEO) of the locality in which the maker or transferee is located; and (4) eliminate the requirement for a certification signed by the CLEO.

I'm not closely acquainted with the federal rulemaking process, but it appears that this is just a notice of proposed rulemaking, something that I assume is the precursor to a requisite comment period, hearing, etc. I don't know if the July 2013 date given in the timeline is when the comment period begins or ends or what.

Not surprised 'they' want to dull the appeal of the trust. Still has some advantages- but pretty crappy overall. May need to submit another form before this takes effect.

A-FIXER:
grandfathered?
