Efa-10 private transfers inquiry

[Picton]

You’re an FFL?
And yes that’s my problem. I am out of private sales and have a staccato p I’m looking to get rid of in search of a staccato xc…

No, it isn't anyone's "problem."

You have a legal item that someone else wants, in a state where it's currently completely lawful to sell that legal item without snitching yourself out to said state.

Put it on a bill of sale and enjoy spending your money.

Im not an FFL, Im not even in state anymore.

Do as Picton said and stop worrying about it....you have a window given to you buy idiot lawmakers in the state that says until they come out with a reg system there is no more FA-10 required.

So use that...and enjoy your freedom for as long as it lasts.

I know someone who did 5 in a year.... his dog is fine.

Not "very unlikely." I'd use the term "unimaginable, given the resources the state has [not] provided for this sort of thing."

Seriously, if that's your (not yours personally, just using the generic your) level of worry, you're probably too skittish to be doing FTF transfers in this state, anyway. Might even be too skittish to be a MA gun-owner in the first place. As anyone posting here should know, it's a big-boy-pants activity in this state.

Oh I'm personally 100% with you on "big-boy-pants". But I like to be pretty clear about how this state can f*** people if they want. If I remember correctly (can't find the case at the moment) there as a dude busted for selling more than 4 guns privately. I think he did like 20ish. His problem was he was advertising them pretty widely.

Generally speaking, like almost anything guns in MA, if you keep your head down and don't do other stupid/illegal shit, you'll be fine. But if you get on your radar, they'll dig up every charge they can nail you with.

That's what they want you to thing, dog was replaced with a spy robot.

There's no longer a requirement for an EFA10, and the EFA10 was the way the gestapo Commonwealth knew you'd done more than four transfers.

No EFA10, no worry about how many transactions you do.

Is it true now with the new legislation that you don't have to follow the AWB anymore?

See....I think you are in the right neighborhood, perhaps not the right door but the right neighborhood. The State has plans to drive the FFLs out of business. Force private sales to FFLs....get FFLs to say No Mas.....and the State gets to say....what.....we didn't ban anything.

Exactly, ulterior motive

Its true if you have a pre 8/1/2024 lower or rifle I believe. Mag laws are more strict now though.

This has been gone over a million times already....not that we care.

I don't pay attention to mass laws much anymore so I have been out of the loop

...uh, on advice of counsel, I'm going to decline to answer that one. Lol.



I have it on good authority that some people here have NEVER bothered following the state AWB. A little birdie told me so.
