Never had them call the cops. But HAVE had them question the legality of some items.
I had a guy rage on me at Harvard a few years back. I had just built a FAL. Wasn't running well and I just drilled out my gas port. Ran a mag through it and it hummed right a long. Guy wanted to know if it was an NFA item because it seemed "fast". Told him it was a STFU item. Semi auto just pisses some people off.
 
Assault Weapons
Massachusetts already has in place an assault weapons ban. The state law related to this ban is outdated, however, referring back to a federal law that has since been repealed. This bill will modernize state law by codifying the assault weapons ban as it is currently being interpreted by the Attorney General, to ensure that our residents are kept safe from these weapons of war.

Official MA Senate Summary - Released by the Senate Leadership

The above is not true.

It does not codifying the Healey Edict.

The Healey Edict has a exemption for pre July 20, 2016 AR-15 Lowers...

What if I already own a gun that is a copy or duplicate?​


If a weapon is a copy or duplicate of one of the models enumerated in the law, it is an Assault Weapon. The Enforcement notice will not be applied to possession, ownership or transfer by an individual gun owner of weapons obtained on or before July 20, 2016.
The AGO also will not enforce the law against a gun dealer that possesses or transfers a “copy or duplicate” weapon that was obtained on or before July 20, 2016, provided that transfers, if any, are made to persons or businesses in states where ownership of the weapon is legal.


Sadly all AR-15's will be banned.

They are not saying what we should do with them.

How should they be disposed of?

This is unconstitutional on many levels and will not stand in court.

At least they could grandfather like Healey did.
 

“''Assault weapon'', shall have the same meaning as a semiautomatic assault weapon as defined in the federal Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act, 18 U.S.C. section 921(a)(30) as appearing in such section on September 13, 1994, and shall include, but not be limited to, any of the weapons, or copies or duplicates of the weapons, of any caliber, known as: (i) Avtomat Kalashnikov (AK) (all models);
That section mentions brand and model. Anything anyone else builds a knockoff.
 
The above is not true.

It does not codifying the Healey Edict.
Healey’s edict means nothing and will be irrelevant once a bill is passed.

AG interpretation = all ARs are AWs regardless of features. Has nothing to do with July 2016.
 
No, it doesn’t. The only relevance to 2016 is that’s when Healey made public her interpretation, which is that all ARs are AW and are illegal post 94.
You are wrong...

If you lower the price of those lowers to $200 you might actually make some profit off them. Time is running out.

The summary written by Senate says the new bill codifies or agrees with the Healey Edict.

The bill itself bans all AR-15 lowers.

The summary and bill are contradictory.

Did you read crackpot’s and the GOAL summary and interpretation?

Hope your lingerie model girlfriend gets congicals and will wait.
 
It mentions the Colt AR-15. Not all AR-15s, like it does for AKs.
