How would my firearms pass on to my son after I have passed? Firearms will be in my living trust.
Would they have to go thru an FFL? Any help will be greatly appreciated!! :shaka:

All they need is to get a permit and register it in their name.
if it includes pistol(s) they need to have the required pistol class and wait 2 weeks to register the pistols. But since your son already has possession the 2 weeks is just paperwork.

Your son will bring in your Death Certificate and the whole collection of firearms to HPD.
Rifles and pistols.
Rifle are easy as for pistols they will examine the pistol (S/N, Cal, etc) do all the paper work.....wait 2 weeks then retrieve the white copy of the registration receipt.
No need to take the pistol back to HPD.
Yes I have done the process before.

Can one create a gun trust in Hawaii and register the guns in the name of the trust? Then they wouldn't need to be re-permitted after death.

To the best of my knowledge, If the son was a trustee, ownership is still the Trust.
Than transfers are not required.
HRS134-2 was written based on the average Joe.Thats where the lawyer comes into writing a good Trust .

Is it easier to register them under a trust than a corporation?
-
Corp req's yearly corporate taxes in most states. Its basiclly a company = accounting and business tax.
Trusts do not require yearly taxes.

Please keep us posted on what your attorney says. If this is possible, it is very appealing.

Might as well add some NFA clauses to the trust .
Since AOW and DD are allowed in Hawaii.

I talked to my attorney bout putting my sons name on the living trust as a trustee. She does not recommend it as if my son should get married and ended up divorced, she would be entitled to half of his share....F*^# that....
