If the gun is on the list but not "AG Compliant" you have not been "involved in an illegal gun transaction", but have been "the victim of an unfair and deceptive trade practice" - read the CMR.

So, what's involved in opening a gun shop?

Coyote, first off, welcome!
Second, there are couple of gun stores at the end of I290 - Callaghan's in Marlboro and K&R Target Sports in Hudson. K&R has more in the way of modern arms, but Callaghans has more ammo and more blackpowder firearms. Both are worth the trip, and both are run by the owners... who are very friendly.
K&R has both new and used handguns as well as long arms. Callaghans has some used handguns but I don't think that Richie Callaghan orders any new ones any more. Ray at K&R definitely does order new ones.
Oops... almost forgot Tite Group Sporting in Northboro! Also run by the owner, and a good place to go. Small, but he will order whatever you want. I've bought guns from K&R and Callaghans but not Tite Group. Other folks on the board report good experiences there, though.
Third... first, you gotta get an FFL. Second, you need a bunch of money. Third, you need a GOOD lawyer! Fourth, you gotta find a town that will let you open up a gun store! Fifth... let me know when you do it. I'm starting to think that maybe it's a good time to start a new career!

I was right in front of a woker/owner looking in the case and not even a "hello". Prices were high, obviously they were to busy chit chatting the sewing circle to acknowledge me.
I'll never step foot in their again.

From what I understand, you don't have an LTC yet. That's the policy at most gun stores in MA. They are under so much grief from the state that they take no chances.Well, I've gotten the "you can't touch any guns" line at Four Seasons as well.

the "processing" and storage fees exceed the value of the guns.
OH - Yankee then exacerbates that injury by delaying pickup. He told a client of mine he'd have to make an appointment a week away for the transfer - while charging for the week Yankee delayed him.

ok.
how about that wannabee rambo idiot you used to work there.
he came in carrying a gym bag from which he dresses up for work in full camo. with 2 guns: one in a shoulder holster, one in a small of the back holster, six hi cap mags, a bullet proof vest and a neck knife. topped off with some sort of military cap. then he takes it all off when the work day is done.
today he is most likley to be found hiding under a bridge.
he threated a few patrons. people used to look in the window first before entering.
walther ppk; spelling corrected
A Walther PPK is just that; a WALTHER. What does S&W have to do with it?
Actually, for a while S&W was licensed to make Walther PPKs. Of course, the German made Walther PPKs are awesome, while the S&W PPKs are said to be crap. I'm pretty sure it was S&W, because the also make the knockoff P99 (they call it the S&W 99). So in fact, he meant he got a S&W version of the Walther PPK.
looks like i was not the confused one
