Get out now while you still can!If someone purchased (Wednesday) two G43x MOS with the hopes of transferring one to his LTC holder Fiance, Can it still go through the Mass. Portal? Or is that no longer a valid option?
Show me in the current law where you are required to report a sales transaction?If someone purchased (Wednesday) two G43x MOS with the hopes of transferring one to his LTC holder Fiance, Can it still go through the Mass. Portal? Or is that no longer a valid option?
Yes, the portal is still open.2444 SECTION 157. The department of criminal justice information services shall establish the electronic firearms registration system established pursuant to section 121B of chapter 140 of the General Laws, as inserted by section 32, not later than 1 year after the effective date of this act; provided, that all firearms shall be registered in accordance with this act and not later than 1 year after said electronic firearms registration system is completed and publicly available.
This. Give her the pistol and leave!Get out now while you still can!

It's his fiancé. Probably a gift. Also she has an ltc. I'm going to have to respectfully disagreeThis
This is 100% that. People have been denied for less. Like going into the store at the same time and standing too close.It's his fiancé. Probably a gift. Also she has an ltc. I'm going to have to respectfully disagree
4437 ask if you are the purchaser.
Absolutely. But have you never gifted a firearm? This is crazy. He didn't ask how to transfer it to his gang banger friend. He said his future wife. There is a huge differenceThis is 100% that. People have been denied for less. Like going into the store at the same time and standing too close.
Probably but we don’t know for sure. OP should remind himself of the instructions for 21A on the 4473. If his wife gave/gives him cash for it, it’s a straw.It's his fiancé. Probably a gift. Also she has an ltc. I'm going to have to respectfully disagree
Not the same, but...4437 ask if you are the purchaser.
Are we going straight to the gutter on this one?his gang banger friend. He said his future wife.
I guess I just don't look for laws to be broken. It's a pistol. It's his future wife. As a logical person, I'm seeing no issues.Probably but we don’t know for sure. OP should remind himself of the instructions for 21A on the 4473. If his wife gave/gives him cash for it, it’s a straw.
What about services in place of cash?Probably but we don’t know for sure. OP should remind himself of the instructions for 21A on the 4473. If his wife gave/gives him cash for it, it’s a straw.
And there is a difference but the straw law doesn’t care if someone is prohibited or not. Just if there was an exchange of consideration.
I'm going to agree with @NortheastEasy about you.Are we going straight to the gutter on this one?
“Money, services, or other items of value”What about services in place of cash?
this is sparrr.... no, not at all, it is only mass.this is insanity

This
Brings up a good question- can one LTC holder buy a 'gift' for another? Due to this concern whenever Mrs. Mountain has wanted to give me a pew pew gift or me to her, the one who will own it ends up buying it so there is no straw purchase.It's his fiancé. Probably a gift. Also she has an ltc. I'm going to have to respectfully disagree

Nice, concise explanation that even a gun store counter cretin might understand.A pure gift (no money exhange in the wrong direction) is not a straw.
Yeah, its open and it always allowed you to voluntarily register your guns.I looked at the portal yesterday and it appeared to be open for business. Didn't look today.

Good luck in jail!I gift firearms to my wife and kids for every occasion. It’s better than socks and underwear in your stocking.
