He will need a gun license to own a shotgun in MA. That way he can get whatever he wants beyond the shotgun. I just moved to MA from a gun friendly state out west. I have several firearms from my home state. Cant find any law that backs that up.. Rediculas MA honors nobodys carry license. Hello Matt. You do not have to register your firearms with the state. Thanks Jeff! Thats what I figured after looking into it.
Local PD made it sound mandatory. Also said it was big trouble if they ever had to come by and found firearms that werent registered. They pretty much just want to know what you have. Hi i have my LTC class A my question is if i am on my property in Massachusetts i am outside cleaning the yard or working in yard and a neighbor can see i am carrying my firearm is that a problem.
Hello Theresa. Your neighbor seeing your firearm is not illegal. However, we would advocate for you to keep the firearm concealed at all times. I will be moving to Massachusetts next month. I heard that you have a 60 day grace period?
Is that true? Leave them locked up and stored until your license is dealt with. If you want, you can get a head start on the licensing by taking one of our online courses and then you can apply immediately after you move. We have one coming up tomorrow that still has room! That is not quite correct. But since yours was in it should be held against you. Now if you went before a judge in the case, then you will have to indicate that on the licensing paperwork.
You should also be able to apply with a copy of your DD as proof of training. Thank you! My family and I are vacationing in New Hampshire next month. What does that mean, and am I asking for a world of trouble if I, as a boring tourist, have a firearm on my hip? I currently hold an unrestricted LTC in mass. I am moving to a new town and will submit the required change of address form.
Can the Chief in my new town deny or change my unrestricted LTC? Generally not. When the licenses is up for renewal, there may be a restriction placed on your license if the Chief is looking to do that. It depends on the Chief. So you might end up having trouble on the renewal. If that happens your only recourse is to speak with a firearms attorney and see if they can help you. Were this me, I would wait on purchasing a new firearm until the license question has been resolved.
I researched this and it seems to be a gray area. I can freely buy any gun in NH with my property tax and utility bill and leave them in my NH home. So question becomes if I buy a handgun not on the approved MA list in NH something simple like a variation of a Sig that only certain models are approved in MA and it resides at my NH home for a while, if I change the magzine to 10 rounds can I bring it to my MA home?
NH residents moving to MA can do that so not sure if it is much different. I typically travel back and forth weekly. I am a NJ domiciliary who has a second home on Cape Cod. My wife and I spend about a half year at each location. I heard that if you buy a MA non-compliant gun as a resident in another state you are permitted to possess it but not buy it in Massachusetts.
Is my understanding correct? Are you asking that if you were to buy a gun in NJ would you be able to possess it in MA? Please send an email to info tacdynamics. What are the limits pertaining to ammo you can own and possess in Ma? I understand state fire laws may be in play? Fire code regs only allow up to 10, rounds of rimfire ammunition, 10, rounds of centerfire ammunition, and 5, rounds of shotgun ammunition without a special storage permit.
I live in Massachusetts. Can my son, who lives in another state NH legally give me a glock that that he owns. We both have legal, right to carry permits. I have heard both yes and no. Does it matter how old the gun is? I recommend that you should contact James Wise, our Director of Training.
He can be reached at james tacdynamics. I own a number of non MA compliant handguns I registered with Mircs after they were fully assembled. What is the worst thing that can happen if AG Healy declares such ownership is on circumvention of MA compliancy rules? I would imagine that were any laws to change that existing firearms would be grandfathered, but this is only speculation.
Yes you can ship a chassis and stock directly to your home. Absolutely not. You cannot display a firearm with the intent to threaten. That is brandishing. I knew you could not brandish, but i am talking about a defensive display that is informative, not threatening….. NH allows this type of defensive display, for example. Anything else could be construed as brandishing.
Thanks Jeff. I guess if all the requirements for a deadly force incident were there, I drew my weapon, the assailant turned and ran off, and I chose to not fire….. Keep up the fantastic work , I read few articles on this web site and I think that your web site is really interesting and contains lots of wonderful info.
I keep seeing ads for the Diablo 12 gauge black powder pistol with a six inch barrel, saying it is legal in all 50 states. Massachusetts approved firearms listings on state websites have conflicting information. It may be overpriced and there are probably better fun guns available, but where can I get a clear and reliable answer on the door to door legal purchase claim? Online ammo vendor shipping to MA: vizardsgunsandammo.
Recently purchased and received 9mm, which they do have in stock as of posting today. I own a hand gun whose license has expired a number of years ago — just forgot to renew until too late. I keep it locked up in ammo box. What can I do? Give the gun to someone who is licensed to hold onto until you get your license back. Then take it back from them. You have to have that firearm shipped from a dealer in your home state to a dealer in MA once you get your MA license squared away.
Once the license is in hand and the transfer goes through you should be good to go. Ammo actually can be shipped directly to your door. Hello guys, I was wondering if anyone knows if it is legal to build a small firearm from home in Massachusetts?
I do want to apply for a permit but I read that MA is a may issue state and I feel like they will deny me. I have never been convicted of a crime but I have been charged for a few of them which got dismissed threw a continuing without a finding and that was over 10 plus years ago but, when ever someone does a background check the charges show up.

If Glocks are legal like in the above article - how does a citizen with an LTC-A purchase one, or obtain one in the state? Joined Oct 19, Messages Likes 49 Location western mass. There are two lists you must obide by in MA. The one that causes all the issues is the attorney generals consumer saftey list. Others require a special license for Concealed Carry. NOTE: Government websites have a. Those websites will tell you what ID or documents you need to bring with you, and rules about who can apply for licenses.
Having the correct gear is essential when using a firearm.

Each state has its own rules for how residents can obtain a concealed carry permit.
