No love for Williamson County?

[Dust]

Dad and I are looking into a suppressor for a 22/223. Everything I have read says that Williamson Co. residents are SOL. A search on the forum turned up Trusts, but I don't know enough yet to know how they work. Can someone give me some info on getting started on paperwork or a way around this?

Wasn't williamson county the place where that guy ws shooting dogs and cats with a suppressor?

I have done several trusts for williamson county residents so they could purchse NFA items.

In general, a williamson county resident has a choice of forming an LLC/Corp or a trust if he wants an item regulated by the national firearms act.

Wilco is friendly. I've seen alot of paperwork from stores in Wilco so someone must be signing them.

 

[Dust]

You are the first I have heard saying that Williamson is friendly. I talked with a guy, who I think SC is talking about. His neighbors accused him of taking out their dog. He told me as with everything else i have read, that there would be no silencers in Williamson County.

Who knows how old the paperwork is that I saw then, but I have seen CLEO sign-offs from Wilco residents on their paperwork so someone at some point and time was signing them. Your best bet is to call around to C3 dealers.

As soon as I read this I called the sheriffs office, Sheriff Wilson will not sign for suppressors but will sign for any other NFA items. You might check with your local Police Chief.

I am ignorant on the gun laws, but why would a local county law overrule a federal ATF law? If the appropriate documents and tax were filed and paid, how could a local sheriff stop a federal procedure?

I hate Williamson County more everyday.

Because it requires his signature, and there is no law forcing him to do so.

He is the only person in the county eligable to do so? can if be done in another county or does it have to be in the county in which you live?

The chief law enforcement officer of the locale wher you live, if you reside in a city or in the etj the chief of police can sign as well.

Just got Quicken Willmaker and will be looking into a living trust, unless someone has better ideas.

 

[LittleGun]

Shooting cats and dogs with a suppressed weapon? Did I hear that right?

 

[Dust]

If this is the same guy, he was accused of shooting someone's dog. He says the neighbor's kid did it. I don't know. don't want to get into it.

Also recommending Chuck's Class III in Williamson County. He's a stand up guy.

I live in the city of Austin and there is no getting Art Acevedo (Chief of Police) to sign any Form-4s, he's publicly come out and said he will not sign any. The only route to take in that case is with a trust.

Quicken Willmaker works just fine, or you can see a lawyer if you want to make sure and do it all correct.

edit: It looks like the information I was given about Austin CLEO signoff was about Cathy Ellison, the previous acting Chief of Police. I'm not sure where Acevedo stands.

 

[Dust]

I have some other legal work I need to be doing soon, like importing my wife, so I will take a look at willmaker and work on a living trust, and try to find a lawyer to check it over.

 

[Dust]

Got Willmaker installed. And now I am stuck. AB Living trust or a basic living trust?

 

[LuckyLuciano]

I went with a Revocable Living Trust. Not sure the difference though, but it was pretty easy.
