    Massachusetts non resident firearm laws

    As far as web info here is a pretty plainly stated summary, I'm assuming that a 10-22 is exempt as a rim fire long gun. http://www.goal.org/masslawpages/travelinfo.html Looks like you may need to be cautious if your 10-22 has any tacticool pistol grip etc. Also I read the quoted text above as...

    Is it unethical to allow a buyer to price your item in this time of high demand?

    Auction is the way to go. I just saw a web retailer in another forum admit that they have done this with their stock so that they are not accused of gouging. But since this is THR ill go out on a limb and say that it does make me a little ill to see individuals listing their stripped plumb...

    Massachusetts non resident firearm laws

    M are you sure about this. Granted it has been a couple years, but MA grants non-resident hunting license, etc. I was under the impression that long guns were ok for authorized use such as at a range, etc. One thing that has Long been true is that non residents can't buy ammo.

    Groomsman gifts: Handguns. now which one?

    I think the derringers are still a great idea and look fantastic....you could also laser engrave the grips with some kind of symbol, etc... And BTW get five of them anyway, this is your last chance to go with the bros before.... Well you know what I mean.... You can't leave your Bro or yourself...

    Fair Trade for a Glock 17 Gen 3?

    Just about any AK would be a good trade for a G17...and possible. Many AK owners purchased when they were cheap and plentiful, so might be willing to do a straight trade for your Glock.

    Groomsman gifts: Handguns. now which one?

    I wouldn't scoff at the Kel-TEC. I think Ruger LCPs are under 300 from Buds, but perhaps a bit steep. They would all have to be in state residents for an HG...interstate the fed transfer regs kick in.... Please post a pick when you get the laser etching done..... I kinda like the idea of...

    Painting a Hogue Rifle Stock

    I have been thinking about this quite a bit....and curious to see if anyone replies... i have seen a few threads pop up that suggest Kryolon fusion as a good option, or another rattle can that is specifically designed for plastics, and even more so flexible plastics. Tagging to see other...

    XDM 9MM or Glock 17

    I would go 3G Glock if really forced to choose... But if I was not in CA I would be really tempted by the xdm compact....

    Is this "concealed" carry?

    Thanks for the example on CA law... I am well aware, but it becomes increasingly clear that the true answer to the OP is that one cannot answer his question without a clear grasp of state law. Since there is not necessarily any federal law that covers the transportation of a handgun in most...

    Is this "concealed" carry?

    stay classy brickeyee..... clearly there is a conundrum when it comes to carrying a pistol.....it is not as black and white as you seem to want to make it, and clearly in my post I stated that local law trumps all opinions. Just for the sake of debate how should one carry a pistol to another...

    Is this "concealed" carry?

    I don't want to contribute to the argument that this would be a good practice. But a firearm in a container not attached to the body I doubt would be "concealed carry." In the ridiculous state of California one of the only remaining work arounds to our carry bans and restrictive CCW system is...
