Possibly N.C. may be one of those states that would make probate less awful, but speaking from that point I would not want guns or personal property in a trust. Chances are good that you know which guns, etc. you want to go to whom and also what you may want to sell. I’m sure you will give direction as to how or whom you want to liquidate the ones you are not giving away. When you put them in the trust you give up some of your flexibility and possibly liquidity and possibly pay a trustee for handling the liquidation. This all might go out the window if you had\have really large and valuable holdings. Just my thought.
