ALL guns interstate MUST go thru an FFL! Handguns MUST go thru an FFL in MA and therefore indeed MUST be on the EOPS List to be transferable.

Now, if the guns are >50 years old (sounds possible here), AND you get a C&R FFL, they can be shipped directly to you as a C&R FFL holder and bypass the EOPS List (for qualified guns only).

See the C&R FFL sticky thread and the one on Interstate transfers for lots more detail.

Welcome to the forum.

That's illegal unless he sends it to a dealer.

which part? if one can buy long guns out of state, and then bring them this way, and just fill out an FA-10 to register them, could he not have them shipped to him and fill out the FA-10 once it got here? Im talking only the shotgun here.

Read up on the law!

Doing this can lead to Club Fed time in Danbury.

No, the ability to purchase long guns out of state from an FFL is predicated on the condition that you are physically present at the FFL at the time of sale. No interstate shipping allowed to a non-licensee (except for the CMP, who have a special law just for themselves that allows them to ship to non-FFLs).

The long guns are no problem though (assuming they're not AWs or NFAs). Just have the dad ship to a MA FFL, then go and pick them up. The handguns are theoretically the same, except for the EOPSS roster getting in the way.

NO

That's a free trip to Federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison.

It is illegal to transfer a firearm interstate between private parties.

gracias.



but, to play devil's advocate: what if the OP wants to go to federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison?

 

[vellnueve]

Well, there are much easier ways to do it, without enriching UPS.

Hit an ATF agent in the mouth? At least it would carry some satisfaction. -beyond the ass-pounding I mean

Welcome to the forum - I think MA would allow pics of the guns....maybe not

 

[matt]

Len is spot on with his remark about getting a C&R (Curio and Relic, aka FFL-03) from the federal gov't. There's lots of good reasons to do this. It only costs $30 or $50. If your dad did it too, then he could ship them directly to you assuming the guns qualify as C&R.

PM Bamp on this forum. Pay the 19 bucks to go green first.

As others said, no. However, he could have them (AWB compliant long guns) transferred to him at an FFL in Utah and bring them home as checked luggage on a plane.

seriously. if those are c&r, you don't need to pay that.

 

[jdubois]

Keep looking! $50 is a lot to pay for a transfer! As Martlet said, PM Bamp. He'll do the transfer for you a lot cheaper than that.
