It’s interesting to see people here screaming they won’t comply with the new registration requirements and then consensus that people are going to still do FA10s even thought that system is completely dead per the law.
Not saying you shouldn’t do them to document a transfer, just an observation.
The way I see it, when buying a complete firearm, in MA, you should expect for some paper record. If you don't like it, don't buy it. I know, it s*cks, but won't change a thing by getting mad at it.
If you bought parts of a gun, let's say 3 weeks ago, and are assembling it today, when the law is in effect, then there is no need to FA10 it.
So, those that don't want to FA10 a build, don't have to PER THE LAW. Those that want, still can.
It will be up to each individual.
it is important to also note the change in Assault Weapon and what else can be done that before couldn't.
