Living in Houston and the surrounding areas I have been told that its virtually impossible, for political reasons, to get the required CLEO sign-off on the NFA paperwork.  

With that in mind, is there anyone who could point me to an NFA friendly attorney who assist/advise me in setting up a corporation to legally acquire these items.  Or, is this simpler than I might think, is there some other resource besides an attorney I should be consulting.  

Any info is appreciated.  Thanks.

im going to see sc-texas to set mine up

nfa_investments is the local classIII/II go to guy

Of you are in an unincorporated area of the county, you may be able to still get a signoff for anything but suppressors. Contact Major Juan Jorge at the HCSO.

Now, about setting up a LLC. You can easily do iy yourseld. Check on www.sos.state.tx.us; look in the corporations section, then find "articles of organization for a limited liability company." Next, fill in the blank.

If you are not comfortable doing this, I set these up for NFA purposes. SC-Texas is an excellent attorney and can set you up as well.

I caqn help you set up an LLC.

However- I would see if you can get an LWEO signoff.

What do you want to purchase?  Suppressor or MG or SBR?

Thanks for the info guys.  I actually live in just across the line in Ft. Bend County in the Katy area.  It's unincorporated, so I think my CLEO sign-off would need to be from the FT. Bend sheriffs office, or maybe the constables office.  If you guys know of any contacts there, I am happy to pursue them, I was just led to believe that in the Houston metro area the CLEO signature was extremely rare and hard to come by.

For what its worth, I am looking to get a suppressor initially, and maybe an SBR at some point in the future.

Thanks again all.

I don't have any names for you at the FBSO, but I do understand that they will sign.  Looks like you lucked out this time!
