A fella I know moved here from a different state about ten years ago. He brought with him half a dozen firearms, but nothing that is on the AWB or is high capacity. A 1911, a few revolvers and a couple of .22 rifles.
He allegedly kept the firearms in a safe in his house in MA but just never got around to getting a license. He got his license about 6 months ago.
Right now he's concerned about those firearms being in MA for this long while he did not have a license. He's concerned because if he should use one of them in protecting his home from a burglar it could become evident he may have had those guns in MA without a license for so many years. Yeah, he's using an abundance of caution... but that's just who he is.
What is the legal status of guns he allegedly had in his possession all this time without a license? What say you NES braintrust? If the bad stuff happens what would his risk factors be?
thx
