I will probably be deploying to the middle east in the next year or two and want to make plans for my substantial gun collection. I want my sons to get them and not have them sold for 1/3 of their value to a dealer by my ex wife if I die.
I am assuming some sort of trust would be in order. Added to the value of my guns, vehicles, and house, they'd be getting my $450,000 SGLI insurance. I also have a enough mags, ammo, survival type preps, and gun parts to stock a small gun show or decent sized gun shop.
My ex wife has ironically recently become a believer in preparedness and I'd be OK with leaving her control of most of the food and other perishable stuff, but I want my 8 and 14 year old to inheirit the guns, ammo, and gear. Its probably worth $15K-$20K at market prices and alot of it just isn't available anymore (ie 3 cases of South African .308 or complete sets of M44s, Mausers, SKSs, and AKs)
Where is a good place to start. I am in my last year of college and am broke, so don't say get a lawyer. I can get some help from JAG but they'll mostly just review anything I create and give advice, and I would just as soon not let my command know the size, scope, and value of my collection. The idea of my ex or her boyfriend trading my Albanian SKS for an ounce of weed pisses me off.
