Different question, and one that still has nothing to do with the legislation that's the subject of this thread.

You could buy a long gun in NH before this passed. You could not, and can not, buy a hand gun in NH unless you are a NH resident. That is determined by federal law, not state law.
I think a MA resident can purchase a handgun in NH. However, in order to take possession of the handgun, the purchaser MUST have the handgun sent to a FFL in MA, where the purchaser will pay a transfer fee, assuming said FFL has already agreed to transfer the handgun. Please correct me if I am wrong.

You are correct. You can buy a handgun from ANY state and have it shipped and transferred in to a MA FFL that will accept the transfer.
We're kind of drifting off topic -- New Hampshire state law cares not one whit what is or is not legal in Massachusetts.
As long as its legal under MA law for him to transfer it to you. (The Lists) I know thats what you were saying, just clarifying that its a legal thing and a MA thing, not a business decision or a Fed thing.
The AG's list which I think is unpublished (may be wrong) and the EOPSS list, link below.

Seriously, there is a whole MA law sub forum for you guys please the crown in.
I submitted my NH non-resident permit a few weeks ago, and is in process. Is this now not necessary to carry in NH ?
The reason I applied for NH, is obviously to travel to NH, but also PA.

If you can't carry in PA with the MA license, but you can with the NH non-resident license, then getting the NH non-resident license would still make sense for you.
New Hampshire is not a duty to inform state.The benefit to the NH license is, and please correct me if I'm wrong, that you don't have a duty to inform if pulled over while carrying in NH, whereas if you're relying on constitutional carry you have a duty to inform
New Hampshire is not a duty to inform state.
As for other benefits, see earlier in the thread, and the other discussion on the NH license and the Federal [thread=320986]GFSZA[/thread].
