1 Question on this, even if it becomes policy. I have watercooler intel that even with a trust in NC, that only eliminates the CLEO signature on SBR's and Suppressors. Getting CLEO signature for MG's is state law and required for any MG purchase, whether a corporation, trust or individual.
I cannot find anything that confirms or denies this claim. Anybody got anything?

The ratified version of the bill (the section that pertains to this discussion) is below. It does not remove the CLEO signature or permit requirement. In fact, it actually clarifies that it is entirely at the discretion of the Sheriff in all cases.
(5) Persons who lawfully possess or own a weapon as defined in subsection (c)
of this section in compliance with 26 U.S.C. Chapter 53, §§ 5801-5871.
Nothing in this subdivision shall limit the discretion of the sheriff in
executing the paperwork required by the United States Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco and Firearms for such person to obtain the weapon."
SECTION 9. G.S. 14-409(b) reads as rewritten:
"(b) It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to manufacture, sell, give
away, dispose of, use or possess machine guns, submachine guns, or other like weapons as
defined by subsection (a) of this section: Provided, however, that this subsection shall not apply
