I can't carry in the hospital, but otherwise I try to carry all the time. However, some days I'm lazy and just grab spyderco.

Makes no difference to me..........MA SUX.Sporting restriction.........
His reasons, or lack thereof, are none of your business.I do not, I really cannot understand someone with out a real reason to "carry" 3- .44 magnums 24/7(double shoulder and one in his small of the back) with out a "reason".
Your right. He"s elderly and also thinks he used to be a "cop". Cop idealoge(if thats a word) maybe?His reasons, or lack thereof, are none of your business.
I have an NH permit, but work in Mass, so don't carry during the work day. The MA non-res seems like too much of a pain to get.
Otherwise, I wouldn't set foot there with much less than a reinforced rifle company.)
I carry every chance I get.
Carried in my Utah CCW course today
Concealed means concealed. Do you think for one second that a slimeball gives a flying F*** about what the rules are? Carry concealed. No one knows but you. You aren't the bad guy.... but there just might be one there who couldn't care less about HR 4501 or MGL 140 or the EOPS or......
Concealed means concealed.
Are there logistical issues? Yes! Deal with them!
I carry every chance I get.

Not currently carrying since I am waiting on my new holster.

Compton?
edit: Not saying I don't want to but if I carry and get caught in a situation then I lose my suitability and I go to prison.
(a) A Class A license shall entitle a holder thereof to purchase, rent, lease, borrow, possess and carry: (i) firearms, including large capacity firearms, and feeding devices and ammunition therefor, for all lawful purposes, subject to such restrictions relative to the possession, use or carrying of firearms as the licensing authority deems proper; and (ii) rifles and shotguns, including large capacity weapons, and feeding devices and ammunition therefor, for all lawful purposes; provided, however, that the licensing authority may impose such restrictions relative to the possession, use or carrying of large capacity rifles and shotguns as it deems proper. A violation of a restriction imposed by the licensing authority under the provisions of this paragraph shall be cause for suspension or revocation and shall, unless otherwise provided, be punished by a fine of not less than $1,000 nor more than $10,000; provided, however, that the provisions of section 10 of chapter 269 shall not apply to such violation.
So what happens when the day comes you need to use your firearm and you're restricted? I guess prison is better than being dead...
FYI, while I don't advocate breaking the law or an LTC restriction, just so that everyone is clear on what the law says, violation of a restricted Mass. LTC is not criminal.
MGL 140-131(a)
Civil fine and loss of LTC/guns, which makes it a very bad idea of course.
I don't carry all the time, usually just because my required work attire is not ccw friendly (slacks w/a button down). Thinking about picking up a bladetech or a supertuck to remedy that situation though.
