There used to be an active NFA group here in Ga. (back in the days of Yahoo groups ) We held several shoots in Madison, I held 3 on property I leased. We also held shoots at a friends place near Calhoun. One of the guys owned both a 203 and a M-79. I am still occasionally in touch with him but...
They were bought to be used. They are made of metal and anything can be fixed. It is a question of being cost effective. Even if the company is around that is no guarantee of repairs or parts support.
The alternative to a trust is to leave NFA as individual line items in your will. They will transfer on a form 5 tax free. The person inheriting the item can not be a prohibited person. No different than a trust and maybe even easier. The ATf usually never denies a form 5

How about a week in a digital age. I saw a form 4 in an estate a couple of years ago from 1974 it was received by the ATF and returned in 5 days by mail. A right delayed is a right denied. This was for a machine gun.
