Moving to NH soon. Can't wait to purchase some really cool dangerous Killy stuff that we are forbidden to possess here in ma! I have ma class a no restrictions. Still work in ma and will probably still hunt in ma for the foreseeable future. What do I do to be able to have out of state class a? I plan on notifying my town once we close on the house. Any advice is appreciated. Thanx.

This. And make sure you follow the notification time frame for your move on your current LTC or it can come back to bite you when you apply for your Non-R.
It's basically highway robbery, but it's actually easier to get a Non-R permit than an LTC from a procedural POV.
Yikes, Chelsea?!?!?! Where can I read up on the laws on this? Does everyone line up on Dec 31st? Or is it 365 day period starting when you apply??
Everything else in MA is highway robbery, so I guess I'm not surprised living here my whole life.
I'm a simple guy, not looking for anything too special, would just like to be able to purchase the same brand new firearms that all my friends and family in NH own!!

Wait till you apply for your NH P&R. You're going to be bullshit about how easy it is and that you suffered under that boot for so long. The PD secretary called me and APOLOGIZED that it took her 3 days for my license to be issued. The application is one page controlled by the state, no tests, no interviews, no BS.
CERTIFIED MAIL: don't forget that you have to send the change of address by CERTIFIED MAIL. Please check the FRB website I think you have 30 days. I don't know what the procedure is for a resident converting to a NR license since I have only held NR licenses but I think you would need to notify your local PD as well.
Licenses are good for a year from the date they issue it - at least that is how my NR license timeline works. So if they issue it on July tenth then it expires a year from that date.

NOT true under current administration!
You need to find some new friends!
Certified Mail ONLY to issuing department and FRB for moves out of state, both within 30 days. Suggest get Return Receipts for both.

Restrictions and bans drive up demand. Something Obama & crew never understood.

Thanx everyone for all this great advice!! I thought I had to notify within 60 days, but maybe that's an in state move?? What do I know, I just TRY to follow the rules, I don't make em, haha.
That really sucks about the NR license for MA. I guess I would need that even to hunt in MA still once I'm an NH res, even thought I have a 2015 MA sporting license, doe tag, and JUST renewed my MA LTC like 4 months ago. Suck.
Soon to be two less right wing nut jobs voting in MA, add two to NH. Can't wait to buy a sig from my friend in NH that has been a dealer for years but has not been able to sell me one!!
And yes shocknawe you do need better friends, hehe, although I do love my shield!!!

The FRB lets you make the notification to them with a phone call.
That is not in accordance with the law. I recommend following the letter of the law, regardless of what the FRB tells you.
I agree and have had this discussion with Michaela. She's trying to provide a "customer service" but I see 2 problems with it.
- The law doesn't allow for it. It should be changed.
- Getting info correct over the phone can be a challenge. MANY people when I tell them my name is Len, come back with OK GLEN!
Wait until you get your first NH real estate tax bill.....
Everyone claims that NH real estate taxes are so awful. My wife and I are selling our place and looking into moving to NH. Real estate taxes are a fair bit higher, but they don't tax the piss out of everything else. It becomes a wash in the end.
YAY!! Let's turn this into another MA vs NH pissing contest.
Serious question for the OP. Why would you continue to hunt in Mass for the foreseeable future? From any spot in NH, you're no more than 30-45 minutes from anything you want to hunt.

People make a blanket statement, but its dependent on what town youre in. MA property taxes are lower on average, but not every NH town is outrageous. I used to have a map color coding NH rates by town, but I cant seem to find it.

Edit- found it, its from '09, but shows the differences between towns.

Exactly. Politicians want your money.
The trouble with this chart is that it only compares tax rate - it doesn't take assessment into account.
There was a point approximately 10 years ago when the tax rate in my town was over $45/k. The town was reassessed, and suddenly the rate dropped to $25/k. The total valuation in the town had more than doubled. The net effect was the same - your tax bill didn't change by much, but it made the tax rate 'sound' better.
Rate is only half the equation.
