I came to one of your machine-gun shoots a few years ago, and let people shoot a PKM and a few others for free. I also sent that club $500.00 to help with their legal fees so we will have a place to shoot long into the future. I do support NES in many ways, and in fact have thousands of Mass. Customers. I don't have time to do a lot of what I'd like to, but will try to organize some great NES exclusive sales in our Amherst, NH location after it opens sometime this year. Thank you all for your business!

We employ 25 people at Shooters Outpost. I can't be there for every transaction, but buying parts and pieces do not require showing your ID. 0nly ammunition & magazines. If anyone here ever is told different - ask for me and it will be corrected. It's hard to get 25 cats herded together and speak the same tune. With my new addition coming in 2017, part of that is a large classroom where my employees will have many meetings addressing these, and other issues. The classroom will also be used for re-loading classes & product knowledge classes for all sales people. We're not perfect, and never will be - but will never stop trying. If anyone feels they can do better than the people already working here, come apply for a job. To the person that says Shooters is like Four Seasons North - I take that as a compliment. Carl is a friend, and has one hell of an operation in Woburn.....

I don't think there is more to the story. It's well-known they ask for driver's licenses when you try to purchase ammo and if you have a MA license they require you to produce an LTC. It's not surprising they'd require ID for magazines as well.I never called you a liar, do not bet and do not drink. I just believe there is more to the story.
They don’t know if the magazines will stay in New Hampshire and if you like it so much here and really do own property why not just get a New Hampshire drovers license? Might save you a few dollars in taxes as well.
Personally, I agree with the shooters outpost policies. Why should you be allowed to buy something here thst you can’t buy at home? It’s bad enough that you can carry here and New Hampshire residents are denied that right when they visit Massachusetts. So, no not fvck SO, fvck you!

For a mag? Never in my life have I been asked to produce a DL to buy a mag. Ever. There has to be more to the story.
There is, The owner uses the excuse that he doesn't want have to deal with a law suit with his good friend Maura, So he enforces the law of that state in New Hampshire, thus conditioning folks that this is the way it is, and should be. He doesn't have the sack to tell his lawyers to send that witch a letter that any litigation initiated by her office will be considered harassment and a violation of The United States Constitution, Commerce Clause.
I vaguely remember a situation years ago when Mike Dukakis sent the Mass State Police to NH to monitor people with MA plates buying liquor at those state-run liquor stores. The troopers would watch folks with MA plates loading up their cars and follow them back across the border and charge them with tax evasion. People complained and NH started stopping the troopers and charging them with harassment.
I strongly agree with FisherTech. Shooters Outpost has no obligation to follow Massachusetts' ridiculous laws. A magazine can be bought on eBay, Gunbroker, whatever without a FFL (although most sellers won't ship "high capacity" mags to MA). I have bought plenty of 10-round and under mags by mail.
Since you're calling me a liar, why not give them a call and ask? 603-232-6125. I bet you a bottle of Scotch.....
The question should go something like this:
"Will you statist fvcks sell a standard cap magazine to a MA resident with LTC and P&R who has stated they will only keep it at their house in NH?"
You can pretty it up.....or see that there isn't MOAR to the story.
....or you can depose my son...he would still be salty about it if I hadn't driven up the street to another FFL and bought them there instead.
Mike, In one of my previous posts on the this thread, I listed several places, that don't have anal retentive issues. So how about quitting with that line of garbage.
Runnings, In Claremont and Hinsdale, Bass Pro, Riley's, Plus others.
This! I've bought "hi cap" preban mags online and had them shipped to my house. Some sellers wanted a copy of LTC prior to shipping and some didn't. Some sellers were gun shops and some were just random people.A magazine can be bought on eBay, Gunbroker, whatever without a FFL (although most sellers won't ship "high capacity" mags to MA).
Mike, It seems that you are mixing apples and oranges here, to validate your claim. A Firearm is a "Federally regulated item" That requires IDENTIFICATION in order for the transaction to take place, and under Federal Regulations and Law a FIREARM that is restricted is subject to that standard. The items that that we are referencing here are so regulated by FEDERAL LAW and REGULATION. So now want to try again.
Should I not be able to buy lower taxed booze when i drink up there? Maybe not buy fireworks? Maybe I should send the sales tax when I go to a store down to Maura. YOUR statist non-libertarian attitudes are why NH is becoming MA North. The rules are good enough for ME, just not you other people.

This sounds like good urban legend territory . . . tax on goods purchased outside of Mass is payable on your State income tax filings as "use tax" not due as soon as you cross the border . . .
You technically are supposed to report un-taxed sales and pay the MA tax rate on the item(s) if they would otherwise be taxable here. Ive never seen DOR go after an individual for not reporting Amazon purchases before the Wayfair decision.
so I stop and buy a widget at the walmart in NH and use it at my NH place and I should pay taxes on it? uh...no. Hard pass. It only applies to stuff you bring back into the commiewealth.
Backing away from thread drift a notch. I am just saying their shit policy and running ascared of the Maura threat of a lawsuit is a shit policy, and it's why I'll just go down the road.

While it captures the spirit of the incident and gets the names of the governors in the dispute correct, the facts are tough to nail down.I vaguely remember a situation years ago when Mike Dukakis sent the Mass State Police to NH to monitor people with MA plates buying liquor at those state-run liquor stores.
