I'm looking to transfer a pre-ban Colt AR-15. I talked to the FFL I got my first firearm from, Dave Franks, seems like a good guy but I have no idea if he knows his stuff or not.
He told me that it was illegal for me to transfer the rifle to MA because it wasn't on the AG's approved firearms roster?? I then asked him if I could just transfer a pre-ban lower receiver to MA -- he told me this would be fine and easy to do.
This is just very dubious to me -- The AG's approved firearms list applies to complete guns only, despite being pre-ban?
Am I completely missing something here? I thought I knew MA law pretty well but what he was telling me makes me feel like an idiot.
Can someone please clarify what's up for me? Thanks a lot!
