The reality is in the real world, none of this actually matters. If you EFA-10ed it once as whatever, after it became a functioning firearm (of any type) your obligation with that is over. There's no need to revisit it later.
I’m suddenly very curious about the “others” that are so popular in CT, NY, and NJ and the status of such things federally in the late 90s. I had always assumed that the state definition of firearm had some bearing on that but this thread indicates otherwise.Pretty positive there are definitions for both rifle and pistol that apply to the USC at the time it is being cited in MGL.
If you really wanna be on the bleeding edge and get cute, then I’d think long and hard about what exactly the federal definitions are. Seems to me that If you had a firearm that was incontrovertibly NOT a rifle per federal definition, and also incontrovertibly NOT a pistol per federal definition, then you might have yourself something that is not subject to the AWB.
But as many have said, just because you’re right doesn’t mean the prosecutor isn’t going to ignore that version of reality and charge you with their own.
I have no doubt what you are saying it true.EOPS has given specific instructions to submit SBR’s as pistols with the FA10 since they do nit meet the requirements of a rifle per MGL. FWIW
I have no doubt what you are saying it true.
Can you please provide a link to that information. I never saw anything about SBR's.
I see.No. Verbal conversations aren’t legal to record without the other party’s consent in MA.
I see.
In that case, who did you talk to?
