Tried searching but haven't seen anything posted about this. Let's say a person has invested in a bunch of NFA firearms, suppressors, maybe machine guns, whatever. They do not have a trust set up. That person passes away, maybe puts the items in their will for their wife or child. Now what? The owner of the items is dead, the items are all locked up in a safe in the residence. Since the family cannot legally possess them, I would ASSume that they would have to surrender them to law enforcement. How would they go about legally obtaining and possessing the items?
Just a grim thought exercise on a boring night at work...
