So I have searched this topic on here an the interwebs and I have found some info but none regarding a proactive letter that you fill out and keep in your safe. This is a hypothetical after a friend of mine mentioned this to me. He said that you can write a letter with some sort of instruction that if your ever got your LTC revoked or a 209a and they came to collect. The letter would specifically spell out to the LE's not to bring your guns to bonded storage. It would have instructions to contact a specific (prearranged) ffl who will take possession of your firearms and ammo.
Can you do this or does the letter need to be delivered to the local police after they collect?
Does anyone have a sample letter or template?
Second part of the questions, if your guns are out of state with a relative or friend, does mass have any legal recourse to go and collect them at said location or can you avoid the whole transfer?
Just to clarify, I am not in any way shape or form in worry of having anything happen to me or my license. My buddy brought this up in conversation and I thought it was a good proactive idea if it were possible.
I have read through the following items and got some info but none about the letter in the safe.
