I believe it’s ok if you’re an illegal, anyone else and you’re going to prison.Say I , a person with a LTC, took a person without a LTC to a shooting range. Can they keep an empty cartridge without a license or is that still considered ammunition. Would it make a difference if the used primer was still in the cartridge?
What if it was turned into a keychain. Real cartridge with spent primer in it. Hole is drill through center of bullet. They sell these things everywhere
I’m just grateful they haven’t prohibited horse and buggy whips yet. Only a matter of time though.
If I have a rock without a sling? Ya stupid question, a rock was the first assault weapon.....Banned in Mass.
You never know you might get hurt with that inert object. Also in places like Ma. you could cause major panic among the masses.
A spent primer even! Oh the horror!You could shut schools down with just a primer
I forgot about this. That's right, if you're illegal you're legal but if you're legal you're illegal in Ma.I believe it’s ok if you’re an illegal, anyone else and you’re going to prison.
Lol jokes on them. I allegedly went to my first shooting range in FL about 20 yrs ago. Brought back an empty casing in either my check-in luggage or carry-on as a souvenier.In MA, no
Pretty sad that every all the Massachusetts Veterans Cemeteries are handing out felons to the families of fallen vets in the form of spent cartridges.
God Damn shame.
We received a spent cartridges from my father in laws military burial ceremony. All his grandchildren have one in remembrance... come and take it.
In Ma Debbie does Dallas is art. Any ammo component is ammo and therefore it requires a license.

Has anyone ever been convicted of illegal possession of a single spent cartridge?
And, all the years this has been so, nobody has thought to buttonhole Mr. Friendly Staterep to introduce corrective legislation?I was at Mass Firearms a while back and one of the instructors had a group on the range for a private session. One of them picked up a .22 casing and was looking at it. The instructor saw him and quickly let him know not to take it with him as a souvenir as it is grounds for cuffs without a LTC here in MA. Absolutely insane.
I was at a funeral a couple yrs ago for an active duty member and shots were passed around at the burial in large shell casings.No, it is considered an ammunition component.
When my nephew was coming to NH to learn to shoot, he could take his targets home but we had to tell him no spent casings.
Now here is the MA stupidity. When I was active in the PGR, if a deceased service member got a gun salute at the cemetery, it was customary to police the brass and we would give it someone who gave it to the family, and IIRC one spent shell was given with the flag.
If the family member got caught with that spent cartridge
they could be screwed by the Commonwealth.... go effn figure.
Suprised the police didn't arrest the kids picking up the spent blank casings during the 4th of July parade.
Most cops probably don't know about this part of the law. And many cops will turn a blind eye to it due to the event it happens at.Suprised the police didn't arrest the kids picking up the spent blank casings during the 4th of July parade.
However, every PD has at least one A-hole cop who would jack someone up for anything that they think might stick.Yeah, I get it. Doesn’t change the fact it is a felony. Simply pointing out how screwed up the law is...like we need another example. Also, your out of your mind if you think there are not cops that would jam you up for it and an AG that might take you up on your challenge.
Security (back then)/TSA (now) can and do make up their own "rules" under threat of being arrested or denied your flight. This is the primary reason that I will not fly anymore after a pissing contest with security in 2001 (Sea-Tac) and a self-important TSA jerk (West Palm Beach) in 2003.I had that exact key chain confiscated at an airport. It was the cartridge I used to kill my first deer. This was over 20 years ago and security didn't like "what it represented" and took it.
