Call gun bureau
I called and they will register ANY gun bought PERSON TO PERSON all the laws on the books pertain to FFL LICENSES that is a gun shop or sporting goods that are selling guns. As long as the gun is legally registered in Mass you should be fine but you can't buy any ssay GLOCKS from FFL licence dealers but can from private parties and they ARE legal. Call and confirm as I did.

Oh how I love NH, what a beautiful state. Took a moto trip up to Maine a few years ago, and I was just loving VT and NH. Rode up Mt Washington too, we actually had a somewhat clear day.....wow what a view!

Socialist health care, taxes on taxes, confusing, confounding, and unconstitutional gun laws, illegals that are not "technically illegal", and Barack Obama's aunt Zeituni... Why not come to visit?:no::wacko::bad:

Why would anyone bother with the lawful route? This state encourages you to do the wrong thing, that is just purchase in another state and take it over the line. What this state does with its regulations is not for the "safety" of the citizenry. It is done to obstruct an individuals 2nd amendment right. This is itself unlawful! When the laws are criminal, criminals become the law. At some point law abiding citizens will say enough is enough and just do what ever they want regardless of laws. After all isn't that what the pols do? Have any of the ma laws kept a criminal from getting a gun? No! The laws only keep law abiding citizens from getting these guns. And that is the states objective.

Yup, Once she got back her MA residency she could xfer it to you and it's completely legal. Thats why I'm stocking up on stuff I like while I'm living in VA before I move back. Whats messed up is per the FRB ( I called a while back) those restrictions apply only to FFL's, So it's BS that they won't xfer them. I think it's there way of fighting the list. If we get the guns we want without them..who needs them?
It's a Federal law than any interstate purchase of a pistol must be transferred via FFL's, so no you can't avoid the restrictions on banned brands.

This is also how I understand the law to be. Keep in mind you can own any handgun you want, an FFL "mistake" is their problem, but a banned magazine is YOUR problem and you could be prosecuted for possessing a new hi-cap magazine.

I believe these lists started with the previous attorney general. And there are two and for civilians specific models must be on both lists. For LEO's, only one. I can't keep them straight but I believe links to both lists are posted on the Four Season's (Woburn) gun shops web site.

Gotta agree. By God why would anyone move to MA, NJ or NY? We're all looking to get out!Is this Female your wife? Or GF? If your not ball and chained already I would dump her ass and find a new one. Giving up your rights to move to PRMA(Masshole USA) sounds like your(Pu**Y whipped). What reason other then maybe jobs would you have to move to socialist USA? Higher taxes? High sales tax?Income tax?Little to no gun rights(depending on the police department)Free health care for all?High Crime?

I'm confused. Doesn't the list show Glocks as approved as of March 2011 or am I reading this wrong?

I checked into this DEEPLY (multiple calls to the CHSB/FRB and MSP over the course of a week asking the same questions and checking for consistent answers) when I though this would be the year I moved back because I own newer Glocks and a Kel-Tec, Anything you move into the state with minus totally banned assault weapons are legal, and bypass the approved roster. The approved firearms roster controls what an FFL can xfer to you, NOT what your allowed to own. Once your a MA resident it's also legal to sell those guns via F2F xfer. The only exception on getting stuff into the state this way is the mags, still gotta trade in the standard cap for crippled ones but thats not that a big of a deal.

There on the list because you can still buy pre-ban Glocks mfg before 10/21/98 from an FFL. It's only the new ones that you need to get creative to get. Law Enforcement can buy current models but there usually not stocked anywhere since there the only ones that can buy them. The Firearms roster is useless because you can still get any gun you want if you look around. You'll pay a premium to get that Gen4.....but you'll get it.
