Rifle/shotgun? You absolutely could, provided it's legal in MA. Some states with waiting periods might skip it with an accepted LTC. Beyond that, it's not relevant.(Disclaimer) Resurrecting older thread. This subject came up. The other day. I for got some states recognize ma LTC. What does that really do for you? It’s not like you could just go out for a day. Purchase a gun if you found a deal.
This is the whole and only point to recognition of your LTC in another state. While MA doesn't recognize any LTC except its own, many states recognize ours. That recognition means you can carry as though you had an LTC in their state (or subject to whatever adjustments they might include in their law).Yes you could carry while visiting.
As always, check the laws wherever you're thinking of going as they vary.
Isn't that enough?Is there anything else that make it important? He was making a big deal out if it and showed me the map. But I do t think he’s ever left New England
Just because he hasn't left the northeast doesn't mean he's not justified in thinking about it. Our lives continually change, and opportunity presents itself. Maybe he's planning to drive around the American West next summer and looking forward to the expanded experience of freedom. Or perhaps he's hoping to look for a new/vacation home and would like to carry while touring properties...
