Regarding 4H, in your example you would engrave the following?
J.M. Doe NFA Trust -- whatever the trust is named
City, Stay
?
Does the trust name NEED to include parts of your name, or is that just common? Can I use my initials?

We discussed a few different scenarios, but he doesn't think that it's currently possible to do this. I think I'm going to take it to the next step and write the NFA branch and get a determination letter on this.
The reason I think it should be possible, is that if a person who lived in WI purchased a suppressor, and then moved to MN, he could continue to own his suppressor provided he keep in in WI (or any other state where suppressors are legal). Since it is possible to own a suppressor physically located in another state, I believe there should then also be a way to purchase a suppressor and physically keep it in another state. At least I think it's worth pursuing a little further.
EDIT
I was questioned why I would post this here. It's a question a few people have asked me recently after posting the big write up about purchasing NFA items via trust. I figured I'd post the answer that BATFE gave me for those who are also interested.

jshuberg wrote:My most recent Form 1 Application was kicked back to me. BATFE now also wants you to send them a copy of all your trust documents, including schedule A - assignment of property. A trust must own property to be valid, and BATFE wants to ensure that the trust owns property before approving form 1/4 applications. If there is property owned by the trust that isn't any of BATFE's business, you can redact those lines but they still need to see your schedule A to verify the trust is valid. If the trust currently owns NFA weapons, they must be listed. If you don't send them a copy of your schedule A, they will kick your application back to you. You can simply fax them a copy if they kick your request back, but it will undoubtedly add additional time to the process.
Original thread updated to reflect this.
