I once asked Glidden about this and after his face twisted he asked me why I was asking. His response was that S. 122B is strictly about dealers and dealer licenses, not about mere subjects with proper LTC/FID and thus it was perfectly legal for a LTC/FID holder to sell their own stock of ammo.MGL 140 122B
Whoever not being licensed, as hereinbefore provided, sells ammunition within the commonwealth shall be punished by a fine of not less than five hundred nor more than one thousand dollars or by imprisonment for not less than six months nor more than two years.
What about the sales tax? An FFL purchases it from a wholesaler and resells it as an individual without collecting the sales tax. Thant's not going to go over well. And someone WOULD rat them out....Lol so if the license is that limiting, thats why no remote dealer has an MA ammo dealer license....
If I was an MA FFL right now I'd be saying f*** it, and just have people come into my shop by appointment if they were buying a minimum of 200 bucks worth of ammo or something. That's another way someone could compromise. No "retail open sign" level of exposure to get flogged over, still can sell ammo.
Then again even before the Baker f***head edict went out, I think most of the smaller shops were probably blown clean of most ammo unless they had been laying down serious cash or had some shipments inbound....

There is no sales tax in NHWhat about the sales tax? An FFL purchases it from a wholesaler and resells it as an individual without collecting the sales tax. Thant's not going to go over well. And someone WOULD rat them out....
If I listed all the places where Gidden was just plain wrong, made shit up, etc, we would be here a while.

Just call it a "gun show", and you're good.I think transferring guns at other than place of business is a problem (federal garbage BS) but running around by appointment shouldn't
be.
It's still a misdafelony within the Commonwealth.Finally a misdemeanor that is not a misdafelony.
Great. Now you just brought it to their attention.Finally a misdemeanor that is not a misdafelony.
That's true of murder too.Only if caught at it. Jack.
You have to learn to game the system. Years ago I ordered new sliders for my breezeway here in Mass from a local outfit to be delivered to my NH address (summer property). The deal was that the driver would stop at my house here in Mass and pick up the CASH on the way to NH. Somehow the sliders "fell"off the truck and ended up in my driveway. Win Win. Jack.Probably the same way Amazon collects MA sales tax when selling goods?
My daughter bought furniture at Bob's store in NH. They collected a MA sales tax because it was being shipped to an address in MA...
Nothing in MA is on the level
When I lived in CT, I was selling high end stereo equipment. When I sold to Navy personnel, I would meet them and do the transaction at the Sub Base. US Gov't property, no CT sales tax due!!You have to learn to game the system.
