NFA Trusts in Massachusetts

So here is my question. If you set up a trust and you are the grantor (Settlor) do you still need a machine gun license to buy, own/take possession of title two weapons?

Yes. You need to show the ATF the applicable license's required in your jurisdiction to possess the specific restricted firearms.

Also anyone in the trust who will be handling the machine guns in MA must have a MG green card. But MA is the only state with this Licence

So you have to have a green card before trying to create a trust?

No you do not. You can form the trust then when you apply for the ATF Form required for the Title II firearm you will need to submit the license with the paperwork.
