Law Offices of Martin Seidler

Martin Seidler is an attorney and Class 3 firearms owner who created a legal solution for Americans blocked from owning NFA weapons: the gun trust. Instead of buying a machine gun or suppressor individually (and getting denied by your local sheriff), you can purchase it in the name of a trust—no CLEO sign-off required.

Fewer ATF Paperwork Requirements - Fingerprint cards and photographs required only once every 24 months (individuals submit with every transfer) - Simplifies repeated NFA purchases

Multiple Authorized Users - Family members and friends can legally possess and shoot trust-owned NFA weapons - No need to transfer items when a user dies or becomes incapacitated - Individuals can only legally possess their own registered NFA firearms

Estate Planning That Works - Trust survives your death and passes to beneficiaries without probate - Avoids forced transfers and transfer taxes on each NFA item - Property stays in a single entity across generations

Confidentiality > Only the trust document itself is submitted to ATF with Form 4. The trust is not filed publicly, and its assets remain private—only registered NFA weapons show up in ATF records.

A decorated Vietnam veteran in San Antonio wanted a 9mm suppressed submachine gun. The Bexar County Sheriff refused to sign off on the transfer. Seidler drafted a gun trust, and the veteran acquired the gun in the trust's name instead. Problem solved.
