We have such an assortment of nannies, idiots, and lowest-common-denominator coddler's around here that I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for fundamental liberties to return any time soon. Unless of course you're unemployed, an illegal, or a felon. In that case we're here to help you. I won't get into the intricacies of getting a Mass LTC; all I'll say is some places it's harder than others, some towns it's damn near impossible. The gun needs to be "Mass Compliant" from the AG's Mystery List and would need to be transferred to him via a Mass FFL. "Compliance" involves a manufacturer submitting to a bizarre series of "safety" tests to ensure that if you were to drop your gun down an elevator shaft in a coal mine onto a swarm of endangered salamanders on a piece of shale no less than 8.665 centimeters thick it won't go into full auto mode, load itself with .50 cal beltfed AP rounds and destroy an old-growth forest. My advice? Check with GOAL (don't have their website address here but Google is your friend. If that doesn't answer your question try going to www.northeastshooters.com. If a search there doesn't have what you're looking for odds are you will get a much more reliable answer than you may find here. |
