Is the SKS legal in Massachusetts?

[Dave_W]

Hi All,

Late to the bandwagon for SKS but I'm looking at a 'D' model Norinco and I'm trying to figure out if it's legal here in MA.

Thanks.

David

P.S. Can I get it transferred from out of state into MA?

 

[Pilgrim]

that's the one with the removable mag, right?

it's ok as long as you use legal mags, either high cap/pre ban or 10 rounders.

 

[Dave_W]

Yup, that's the one.

As long as I'm careful w/the mags.

Gosh, MA is a strange state.

Along the same line of questioning.
What about the Yugo 59/66 SKS's that I see listed for sale as C&R guns. These usually have the bayonet and grenade launcher attachment.
I'm assuming that since theses are C&R, they are therefore preban and OK for Mass?

Thanks,
Steve

It's IRRELEVANT.

They do not have a detachable magazine.

Gun from out of state???

Hi All,

I'm interested in an SKS I saw online. I was talking to an FFL and he said that they couldn't bring a pre-ban gun into the state.

Any info would be appreciated.

Find another FFL or better yet get your own 03FFL and get an SKS sent to your door - Just DO NOT post who you got it from.

See this thread.

That FFL doesn't know the law.
