This one really always got to me.As already mentioned, walk away and never go back. But if you want a basis of argument...
So trigger pull comes into play because of 940CMR16, specifically 16.05(2) which states "... average five year old child from operating the handgun when it is ready to fire; such mechanisms shall include, but are not limited to: raising trigger resistance to at least a ten pound pull, ...."
Nope. I am the buyer. He actually took it out back and I am assuming used a gauge to test it. Came back and said it is not Massachusetts compliant and would not do the transfer.His finger is a trigger scale?
Someone elseWow. I’ve always had good experiences there. Wonder what changed?
They sell guns right? They sell and install trigger springs right!
Surprised. Was it Mark or someone else?
Maybe not now, but someday...Not so sure anyone is paying attention to the number of transfers....
Obligatory "Move to Noo Hampshire ! "post.I
Seriously. Get out while you can.
Before they put up a fence to keep you in.

I should have asked what his trigger test is for 1911s, Sigs and Revolvers.
On a private FTF, yes, they do, they're watching.... if you go much over the limit you will get a warning letter in the mail, or at least that's what a couple people have told me.
I've heard this rumor before...just hard for me to think that any agency is on the ball to that degree.
Shooting Supply
When my son-in-law lived in Fall River he applied for his LTC in Fall River. He took the Home Firearms Safety Course and the NRA Pistol Course. This is after spending time in Fallugah as a Navy Corpsman with a Beretta sidearm and a M4 on his back going out in patrols with Marines and dragging soldiers off the field of batttle.And being told by the pencil necks in Fall River that ‘I don’t know if you even know how to shoot a gun so here is your target restriction.’Isn't that Mark Bouchard's shop? If so he is the former FRPD licensing officer and kind of a dick. Not surprised at all by this if it is his shop.
ETA: Just confirmed that it is Mark's shop. Don't waste your time you'll just run in to more shit like this.

Im surprised and disappointed to hear that. Always thought they were a solid shop with good prices. Could be some goon who works there who has no clue what he’s talking about.
Either way it’s always painful to see LGS spouting nonsense like this.

Out of Transfers. Going elsewhere tomorrow.
I always thought mass looks like a gun.

Dumb former Ma**h*** who left in the early 90s and have bought all my guns except for one in other states question---how do they know on a FTF transaction? Reasonable assurance on the seller's part that the buyer is legal, show gun, inspect gun, exchange gun for money, drive away.
Ok. I get 99% of all this, but how’d the VP9 get “approved”.
<10 pound trigger and no manual safety?
I have one I got from Shooting Sports just after they came out.
Just do the FTF. VERY SLIGHT chance you will get a letter. I would be shocked if you do.Out of Transfers. Going elsewhere tomorrow.
The state has a transaction portal called the EFA10 system, where private sales are supposed to be reported (within 7 days of occurrence) by law. You get a max of 4 of these per calendar year as a seller Any sales which transit a dealer are exempt. So you could sell 10 guns through a dealer and another 4 private FTF via the EFA10 system.
Not all that long ago it was done with paper and a 3 part carbon-paper-like, but not, imprint form, one the buyer kept, one the seller kept, and the top part was supposed to get sent to the state. Same rules otherwise.
Doesn't that place sell Caniks? WTF? They have a 3 pound trigger.
How do they sell that and not transfer a shitty Shield.
Retards.
