Mass Firearms School’s $60,000 gun buy
- Thread starter Mass Firearms
- Start date
I have shot the KRISS a couple of times now. It is really a great gun. I am amazed how accurate it is. Not sure if that is due to the low recoil or something else but the rifle seems to shoot very straight.
S&W 442 came in yesterday.

Seriously... Opening in Southern New Hampshire would be great. I'm a member of MFL, and while it's "a pretty good place to shoot" there are a number of disadvantages to shooting there as well in my view. While I haven't gone out and personally checked the market, I'd guess there's lots of inexpensive space in Nashua, Merrimack, and Manchester. Nashua's only about an hour from Holliston (55 miles or so), so it'd definitely work-out in terms of logistics. AND you have an outlet for those guns you can't sell in MA.
Not counting Sig Academy -- which is very much its own thing, really -- there's no well-organized professional firearms training offered in Southern New Hampshire. Sure, there are a few other places where you can catch a random class. But that's what they are: "Random classes" taught by some guy who has an NRA Instructor cert. Not terrible, but not extensive either.
If it sounds like I'm trying to convince you, it's because I am.![[grin]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/041.gif "Grin [grin]")

Would it be okay for someone that's waiting on their LTC to process to shoot, or would they still need an instructor? for example someone having the certificate from the safety class and evidence of a submitted application. I'll definitely be signing up once I have my LTC in hand, just wondering if I can put a potential first buy or two through its paces solo or if I'd need an instructor present.
On another note, how long is a class good for before it "expires" in using it for the application. I'd ask the local gendarmes, but I live in one of the scarlet towns on the north shore.
You would not be able to shoot unsupervised until you get your license. However, members can take advantage of $39 range sessions with one of our instructors. With these sessions you get free access to all our guns. Our ammo prices, in many cases, beat Walmart. These sessions are available the moment you purchase a membership (your membership year does not begin until you come with your license).
Police departments vary on how long they will accept a class certificate (some 6 months…some 1 year…some longer). We offer free re-certification classes for our students.
Sounds good. As soon as I have some time off, I'll be sure to head over and check the new facility out.
Here is what came in today:
- Smith & Wesson Shield, .40sw
- Smith & Wesson Bodyguard, .38spl with Laser

I would like to remind you Plymouth County is mostly politically gun-friendly, and the southern part of the country has some of the highest percentages of LTC holders in the state.
Just sayin'.

Plymouth would be good. There aren't many options for folks on Cape.

We put the gatlin gun together...we still need to work on the trigger and modify the tripod to mount in our range.
