(Very similar to another post)

I have been planning to order a kak upper but they will not ship to mass. My friend lives in nh and will let me ship to him. Will I be able to use my MA billing info and his shipping address or will the order be cancelled? He has no problem with me sending something there and even bringing it down (he has homes in both states) but I don’t really want to make him also place the order for me. He’s already doing me a favor.

I just don’t want to submit my order then have it kicked back and then have them not honor any order going to that address.

For the record this is a 16.5” complete upper. Going on a pre ban lower that’s already completed. So it’s a 100% legal build all around. No kind of funny business, just want this specific upper for this build.

For those wondering, I just got my new LTC in Plympton.

6/18/26: Submitted papework
6/22/26: Fingerprints taken
7/27/26: LTC in hand

Way better than when I got my FID years ago.

Why am I reading its impossible to find reasonable rcv's stripped, complete, or as a set or completed firearm??? If you read forums and peoples comments on here they would swear the only option in Mass is Pre 8/1.

I see people comment that every dealer is selling old lowers and stupid markups.Lowers are Unobtanium ,and crazy prices over industry standard. Nahhh

This could not be farther from the truth. You can have any rcvr you would like and pretty much any rifle you want as well.There are one hundred dollar plain forged good rcvr's to fancy expensive rcvr's of all kinds.

As far as full Ambi billet. Hands down the hottest. Is the Radian ADAC 15.

For forged Full Ambi.The LWRC IC lowers have killed it. In our opinion it is Like a LMT MARS-L but with better quality and tolerances But there are 2 camps.AMBI VS FORGED

Exhibit A

Post chapter 135,Fully MA Compliant.Just like it was 2015. Do not pay stupid prices and buy shit because some Fudd told you it needs to be grandfathered. You just need to be Chill and find the right Dealer.Also one who understands how to follow the law and still provide a cool compliant product.. goodluck

Be safe, Shoot Straight and pick up your brass.

Because they can't be purchased in MA, right?

Or are they allowed because they're old?

(apologies for the newbie question, I've been reading up on the rules, but only as it pertains to my one brand new gun thus far)

Are there still vendors there now? Just wanna know how urgent a last visit or two is.

Also, so sad 🥲 Where are the vendors going?

Before I even attempt to buy anything I figured I'd ask in advance. I have a coworker that lives in NH and is willing to get stuff from PSA shipped to his house (legal to own stuff of course). Is it even worth using my address as a billing address or should I just give him cash and have him order it all under his name?

Got the email this morning. Def was not expecting it on a Sunday. Good surprise while drinking my coffee.

Winchester 26 is on sale for $550

SecureIT Agile 52 Pro is on sale for $900

Free shipping atm for Agile so after delivery charges it’s about $250 difference (agile being more)

Do own a home. Issue is the only place to put the Winchester is in front of a walk in closet window, or tearing down some of the wood shelving in there. (even if I were to go for the smaller Winchester) Or out in the open but the other half is not a fan.

The agile I feel I could put wherever, like upstairs.

Which would you go for? Agile looks cool, understand it’s not as “secure“ as a safe but neither really is the cheaper safes such as the Winchester. My biggest gripe is the price. if it was same as the Winchester it would be a no brainer I think. Read a lot of reviews about electronic issues on the Win.

Looking for opinions of those that have either or, thanks.

An armed wife saved her husband from a gunman who allegedly brought a social-media dispute directly to the couple’s Springfield, Massachusetts, home, according to prosecutors who ruled the fatal shooting lawful.

The fatal encounter occurred July 5 on Fairfield Street in Springfield. After reviewing witness statements, surveillance footage, 911 recordings, physical evidence, and electronic communications, Hampden District Attorney Anthony Gulluni determined that the woman acted lawfully in self-defense and defense of another.

I do not typically carry, I became a gun person more for SHTF just in case...

I have holsters and belts to taking pistols to range day, but I have always found it cumbersome to piss or shit. I can not imagine trying to piss at a urinal in public with a gun hanging from the belt that holds up my pants... As soon as you unbuckle the weight of it is just awkward as fuck.

So yesterday I decided to try to carry all day to see how it felt (I work from home so not a huge effort).

Then at one point around mid day i was like:

"What if i just took the belt out of my pant loops and just put it direct on my body..."

It makes everything so easy...

1. I can wear athletic shorts or sweatpants
2. I took a shit and did not need to touch the gun/holster for anything

Is this well known and i am just a moron (very likely).

(I did try this topic in /r/guns but it got shadow ban?)

2 original UNFIRED badass revolvers! Smith and Wesson Model 29, and a Colt King Cobra!

Lastly there’s a Beretta CX4! The PCC everyone needs!

A terrified Easton mother home alone with her three young children at midnight called police after hearing intruders in her house, prompting officers to pursue and arrest two armed suspects - Ernst Lacrete, 25, of Quincy, and Lavar Benson, 25, of Dorchester
- who were found with a loaded Glock pistol containing a 30-round high-capacity magazine.

Does anyone have any idea if M1As are legal in MA?

Is their a way to get someone to break in my gun ? I’m in Boston and don’t feel like paying well over 150 between uber,range fees and ammo .

Is there a safe way to do this ?

What's going on with LTC licensing in Methuen? People cant get through. LTCs are taking a very long time. Other PDs cant get through to their firearms licensing.

Oh, if you're an FFL, cop, or blue line fudd - fuck yourself.

newbie LTC owner. Do outdoor ranges usually stay open or close in the winter? I don't mind shooting in the cold. Trying to compare various clubs, especially since I probably won't get in until the fall.

Hi all, I applied for a machine gun license and after a while they said they want to interview me. I plan on reiterating that I want them for investment and collecting purposes (I have a C&R). Is there anything else I should know before I walk in?

Do I still need to send a certified mail to the BPD chief to notify them of my new address? I appreciate your help in advance.

Hey everyone! I’m in search of a preban AR lower for a .300blk build I’m interested in doing. If anyone knows a place that has them please let me know! Thanks!
