Not yet an LTC holder, but Hopeful to get my LTC next summer, and had a complicated question.....
we all know that half of the best handguns are illegal to sell in mass. That said, if i do get my LTC when i turn 21 I will probably apply for an out of sate LTC in CT because I attend university there. Now assuming that out of state LTC holders are allowed to purchase firearms in CT, which im not even sure if that is the case, would I be able to purchase a non MA compliant firearm, such as a springfield XD, and bring it back home to MA? i know FSguns, and most everyone says that there is no way around the MA purchasing laws, but if I was purchasing in CT I dont see how it would be a problem. The law states that these guns cannot be sold in MA, but doesnt address the possession of them correct? I want to believe that this is true, but I need some opinions. And if it turns out that I cannot purchase in CT with non res. permit, I could get resident satus in CT. Then would I be able to purchase non ma compliant and bring them back to MA. In theory I feel like this is a plausable way around the bogus MA restrictions, yet still think its probably too good to be true. Thanks in advance for any help.
