Sometime in the future I may look into purchasing an NFA weapon. So as much as I searched I couldn't find a clear cut answer to my following questions...
1) Are NFA firearms technically legal in MA? Does the AWB cover these?
2) Is a LTC A sufficient or is there another license required? (MG, C&R)
3) If I were to purchase online, would the tax stamp price be included or would I have to do that at the local FFL?
4) Are most local (Mass) FFL's fine with dealing with NFA guns?
As an example, here are a couple I found interesting:

My thought with the short shotguns (or rifles) is it would be easily concealable if I decided to get into the Executive Protection field. And if this is the case, is there any regulation allowing or prohibiting Less than Lethal rounds if that was the desired effect?
Could someone be sued if they used LTL rounds on a person that posed a "minor" threat? Example: A protester had a baseball bat in their hand, was advancing but was just outside swinging range so I warned several times, then put a bean bag round in his leg (or near his own bean bag)?
