You just have to go with what you're comfortable with. It may also be necessary to alter your "style" of dress. My "style" has always been jeans with a t-shirt and some sort of "cover shirt" worn over the t-shirt. Usually a flannel shirt (in cooler weather) or a short-sleeved, button-down...

I recently had my Class A - All Lawful Purposes renewed in a city where the new police chief has become notorious for "downgrading" ALP licenses. However, I was renewed for the ALP with no problems. In my explanation of why I needed the ALP I mentioned how I work an overnight shift and how I...

For the record, it is rather difficult to "move out" in this state especially around the Boston area. Real estate is notoriously expensive. We're talking ramshackle multifamily units starting at $250k in the "ghetto". Rent seems to start around $750/month for a one bedroom outside of Boston...

Interesting thread... I can relate, living at home with a parental unit who knows I have firearms but doesn't know how many. She doesn't mind them of course, but just doesn't see the point in "collecting" them. Where do you shoot anyway Laura? I had just noticed that you're in Boston. I'm...

Another vote for Four Seasons in Massachusetts. Friendliest gun shop employees I've ever encountered and a decent selection of everything from hunting rifles to C&R to evil black rifles.

"Springfield is about half a step away from becoming the Detroit of New England." I completely agree with this. I went to Springfield last summer so I could visit the Sprinfield Armory museum for the first time. The neighborhood surrounding the museum was like a war zone or something. And...

Wasn't S.2282 the bill that passed the Senate last week? If so then it does not ban the sale of semi-auto rifles in the state. That provision of the bill was not passed. What the bill does do is listed on GOAL's website: http://www.goal.org/Alerts/mayreform.html What GOAL's site does...

porciniman, Understandable. The laws are so messed up and seems like every company out there has their own set of business rules that they follow. Some will sell ammo here, some won't. Some will sell large-capacity magazines here, some won't. Some will sell ammo and/or magazines but only...

I didn't think that he had banned the actual shipment of ammo. I thought that he was coming down on dealers who sold ammo to people in Massachusetts since you are supposed to have an FID or Class A/B license to buy the ammo and most out of state ammo dealers don't check for this. I should...

Odd how Quincy, MA came up here. I'm a resident of Quincy. Never had any experience with the restraining order process here. But, I do know that Quincy does seem to be very friendly when it comes to issuing Class A CCWs. Last time I had to renew my Class A, I had to go to the PD to be...

Actually, you CAN ship large-capacity magazines to Massachusetts. The only caveat is that the recipient is supposed to have the proper license for the magazines. Ergo, if the recipient wants large capacity rifle magazines they would have to have either a Class A or Class B license. If...

I just put "For All Lawful Purposes" as my reason on both my initial application and on my renewal. Don't know if that's a good enough reason or not for your chief. I gues it depends on what town/city it is. For the record, my application and renewel were in Quincy which seems to be very good...

I used to have a non-resident permit for Pennsylvania. I had to go in to pick up the permit in person and to be photographed for the back of the permit. I never even gave any thought to what I was wearing when I went in for the photo. As a result, my permit has a picture of me wearing a black...

Only thing wrong with this story is that Berettas are indeed one of the few "Mass-compliant" handguns on the market. So, yes, you can buy a Beretta 96 in Massachusetts. Granted it's going to be a "Mass-compliant" one and I have know idea how it would differ from a stock Beretta. If this guy...
