Not a bad video

Been wondering about this one for a while. Would something like this be considered to have one or two features in MA? Non-threaded barrel.

Does the shroud count if what actually covers the barrel is a slide? Does the forward area count as a possible 2nd grip? For those unaware this is essentially a Glock chassis and uses Glock internal including the barrel/slide assembly.

Anyone a member of the Andover Sportsmen's Club (ASC)? My new member application was just approved with a join date of Nov 12th! Id love to start making friends with members😊 See you on the ranges

Im looking for suggestions/application process insight to any ranges near Danvers/Peabody. Is Danvers fish and game good? Or MRA?

My guns:
1) SKS
2) IWI Tavor
3) Mini 14
4) .38 Special Detective
5) Smith and Wesson Shield EZ 9mm
6) .380 Bodyguard 2.0.

I like all my guns. I only ever carry my .380 to be honest. My revolver and my 9mm are too bulky.

Considering I’m pretty happy with my collection I think I’m done buying and just going to get more ammo. Only thing I might buy is a 22lr. Is there a point, though?

Does anyone know where to get No On 9 lawn signs in North Central Mass. ??

I'm looking at getting a B&T. It's pricey, but I've never seen one for sale (8/1) rifle style. So, do you have a B&T? If so, what is it and is it worth it?

Hello all, given the good news these last few days with no longer needing a form for sbrs and sbs, I have a couple of guns with fake suppressors in order to meet the standard length blah blah blah you guys know how that works. Am i good to go to remove them and have them be the sbrs they were meant to be or it’s still not allowed?

Been working on a couple mods to my Rhino as a project.

The big part of it was 3D modelling and designing an optic plate. Once I had the design done, I collaborated with another hobbyist cross country to get it CNC'd out of 1018 steel.

Additionally, the factory grip is quite short. Customized a longer curved grip that I printed in TPU-GF.

Quite happy with how it all came out.

Can anyone recommend a good one? Do they work like auto mechanics? Like per hour pricing? I want to get some feed ramps polished on two firearms and a trigger smoothing. Near Lowell. TIA

Does anyone know if we can get Mini fix pistols in here, needs to be pistol for night hunting coyote. As after dark can’t have rifles chambered larger then .22 Lr. As far as I’m reading and can gather they would be exempt from the AWB cause manual operation. Again with it being bolt action I don’t think it will click off and cause any issues of just being an off roaster pistol. But not 100% sure and haven’t been able to get a good answer from any stores locally.

That’s it. Nothing special. Is there a place I can go without violating any laws? I’m jealous of other states especially down south. I know I could join a club (Danvers or Andover) but I really don’t want to pay a membership fee. Is it worth it? Can someone tell me the pros and cons?

Thanks

If I had a civil restraining order against me (209A) which was then terminated by the plaintiff would this cause an issue when applying for LTC? Town is Springfield.

No other issues on background check never been arrested or have a speeding ticket, DUI nothing.

Moving up to the area soon and my current club is Maynard. Anyone currently belong there or have been who can provide some insight? It looks like it has pretty much the same offerings as Maynard minus skeet fields and an action pit. I don’t really care for The whole NRA and GOAL membership requirements, but I guess a lot of clubs require that. Maynard is pretty lax and you’re generally left alone there unless you’re being unsafe or blatantly breaking rules, can the same be said for Cape Ann? I’d really like to not have to drive 1.5 hours to go shooting, but I’d also like to be able to shoot in peace without someone acting like a fudd to me. I know there’s public range sessions on Sundays and I plan to get out there a few times to feel it out for myself, was just curious if anyone here has been there or is a member who can speak on it.

Anybody know if they are legal in MA? My wife loves the way rifles shoot and I figured this would be a fun compromise but I can’t seem to find a good answer as to the legality of these kits.

I recently moved off cape cod and on to the mainland again and I am looking for a range in the south shore area. I’m looking for preferably an indoor/outdoor to do some distance plinking. Either public or a club that doesn’t have an insane process to get into. Thanks in advance!

"Matthew Hanafin told police his son was currently unemployed but previously worked at a gun shop in Woburn called Four Seasons. He said his son owned multiple guns and had a license to carry, the report said."

No pay wall link

Wish they had included how they botched the new training requirements, Healey pulling a dirty move by ignoring voters by signing an emergency order to put the law into effect immediately, some of the stuff was already illegal.

And how did Briare get this wrong...

"Chapter 135 requires anyone who has a semiautomatic rifle or shotgun, or any firearm capable of holding large-capacity feeding devices, to get a License to Carry, when previously they only needed a Firearm Identification Card."

Reddit keeps deleting my post about the ATF decision to effectively nuke the NFA. What does this mean for us since we don’t live in a free state?
