Letting you know that you are not being polite. If you’re going to speak for me please do it with class and manners.You sir, are truly a piece of shit.
Assuming you're just trying to take attention away from your own scummy antics by posting how others are 'wrong' or 'unjust' by how they label THEIR overpriced wares...ads that they paid good money to post here. Meanwhile, the overpriced garbage you're peddling is somehow ok (by you) because you don't put a properly spelled name in your ad title?
Mind your own business and go f*** yourself.
Love,
The people of NES
P.S. I think I speak for a silent majority here. If i'm wrong, i'm sure they'll let me know.
We sold clean out!
You are wrong, and speaking for myself you sound like a dick.You sir, are truly a piece of shit.

The disturbing aspect of this is that it was a double cross - the MA AWB was designed to not outright prohibited ARs as part of of a deal, with GOAL even declaring it was "good bill" rather than a "partial defeat". It turned out to be "They only took post ban mags for now; they'll be back for the rest later".
Senate President Karen Spilka seemed to have an open mind, and even seemed to understand that people used ARs for legit purpose. She didn't even bring a bodyguard on her fact finding trip to a range where she tried out out my JP AR15. But, shortly thereafter, I heard of her reply to a constituent regarding the Healy Ban that the law "was accomplishing what was intended".
The lesson is that the other side will double cross us any chance it gets.
There was a great example on Canada, eh? a couple of decades ago or so. For point of background the "self defense" argument was lost in Canada years ago - argue anything except sporting use up there and you have the same credibility as a US resident suggesting middle schoolers carry defensive sidearms. So,, when the govt made it clear they were banning > 5 round rifle and >10 round handgun mags (among other things), the govt pacified the sport shooters by adding a "high capacity magazine" license for competition shooters to the law. Almost immediately after passage of the law, the decision was "After consultation with sport shooters and gun control advocates, it has been decided that the need for public safety outweighs the legitimate need of sport shooters so no such licenses shall be issued.".
When dealers start selling lowers at their intended retail price (MSRP or better), "Pre Healey" will essentially cease to exist. That's not what I'm seeing from ANYONE selling them. Capitalism and all that. Totally cool, but don't bitch about others when, IMHO, you're doing the same thing without the name.
Gents (and ladies), I just want to bring to attention a public service announcement.
So do you concur with her assertion that an item that is not a firearm under MA law is banned by a law against similar guns?Get over it, Heally is right, stop bitching, GOAL sold you out and the law bans these firearms.
Well that went in an odd direction sir, everything else aside, are you saying you support perpetuating the false narrative of an AR ban in our state that keeps FFLs and citizens from legally purchasing what they can out of fear of committing a non existent felony... ? Plenty of new LTC’s and first time buyers in light of 2020’s non stop catastrophe of a year, they come here for info and first thing they mistakenly see is glocks are illegal and cost 1000 private sale, and ARs are illegal and cost 2500$ private sale.
You’re entitled to your opinion of me and my business practices however, no complaints from me there. You vote with your wallet, and the other thousand customers voted with theirs and were fine paying less than other listings on here.
There is no such thing as a silent majority on an Internet forum, the keyboard commandos are always out in force to tell people to go f*** themselves with the misguided moral authority that they speak for a silent majority. Such bellicose rhetoric is how we get threads locked where people are otherwise not taking themselves too seriously and poking fun at Healey.
So do you concur with her assertion that an item that is not a firearm under MA law is banned by a law against similar guns?
The existing guidance for interpretation accepted for years was the federal one, that accepted differences relating to things like flash hiders and establishing "not similar". The understanding at the time was GOAL agreed to tout this as a "good law" specifically because of that.
I as very disturbed seeing GOAL capitulate and announce they it felt a ban on new high cap mags was a "good law". I could never figure out why they said that.
Be careful saying "hugs and kisses" to a dick, just saying.You are wrong, and speaking for myself you sound like a dick.
hugs and kisses,
Me
Look at that, the guy from NH agrees with Healey.i disagree with banning guns and magazines but I agree with Heallys interpretation of Copies or duplicates. the existing guidance as I understand the history was from ATF not from anyone at the mass attor general. Healy decided that she was going to enforce a longstanding law. The law needs to be repealed but that will never happen unless and until someone forms a real gun group to counter GOALs anti gun deal making. And some on this board supported Jim Wallace for the nra board.
State moves on assault weapons ban
Now others are pushing Jason Guida for state rep, you are certainly getting the government you deserve

I agree with Heallys interpretation of Copies or duplicates.http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2004/06/24/state_moves_on_assault_weapons_ban/
I’m going to focus on this section of the law:
“...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); (ii) Action Arms Israeli Military Industries UZI and Galil; (iii) Beretta Ar70 (SC–70); (iv) Colt AR–15;...”
In my opinion, you have the wrong interpretation. I believe the intended purpose of this wording was to create a standard of what Is considered an AR15 (as well as other rifles) so that they need not list every manufacturer. They can’t write the law as “anything labeled ar15” because then we’d just change the name to something else. Likewise, they can’t ban a single manufacturer because a new manufacturer could pop up and be legal. They would be constantly revising the legislation to include new makes, models and variants. Therefore, by making a category of “copies” they can cover all manufacturers ar15’s. (For example, the m&p15 is a copy of the colt ar15 design) Secondary, the law describes what is then legal with the feature test. This has always been my interpretation of the law. “Copies or duplicates of” creates the category, the features test tells you wether or not it’s legal. Hopefully this makes sense, I’m typing this on my phone. Like any law, it can be interpreted a thousand ways. I don’t think we’re without firm, arguable ground that ma compliant AR’s are in fact legal.
There are dealers in ma that sell stripped lowers at msrp. Just gotta know which gun stores to stop at off 495
The me rephrase the question to make it clearer:i disagree with banning guns and magazines but I agree with Heallys interpretation of Copies or duplicates.
Huh?State moves on assault weapons ban
Now others are pushing Jason Guida for state rep, you are certainly getting the government you deserve
