New Folks Check In and Say Hi #4

Hi. New guy here from Plymouth MA. Been lurking here for a while and figure it's time to say hi. Just got my LTC in July. Last license I had was an old FID card that expired with the new laws. Wife recently got hers also. First thing I picked up is a Sig P6 from a family member. Hoping to learn more about safety and self protection in the near future. Of course after seeing some of the posts on here I might be adding a few items to what we already have.

Welcome to NES and sorry to hear that you are moving to Randolph! I grew up there but it has really turned into an armpit (Brockton North) over the years.

Please read this thread, it should answer many of your questions:

Welcome Ryan and thanks for your service. Glad you found the forum. Make yourself at home :)
 
New guy here from Southern New Hampshire.

Mainly a pistol-guy, although current forum member "Stape" is really turning me into a rifleman :) As far as firearms experience, I'm just a guy who likes to plink. Never served, never hunted, just like putting holes in paper.

Heard about the forum from him and figured I'd finally join-up.

Looking forward to learning new things and chatting with new people. Cheers!
 
o/ folks. Live in Pepperell, work in Woburn. Been around firearms since I was a kid. Was born in Alaska, so with the exception of full auto stuff, there's not much I haven't shot.

Disclosure: I've lurked around here a while now, figured I'd go ahead and sign up, maybe go green...we'll see. [grin]

Welcome to the jungle. Forget about an FID (unless you are under 21). It's pretty much the same process to get an LTC, and one day you will want to get a (or more) handgun.

Hi Boys and Girls
My name is Larry. I'm from Revere, MA. Hunted some when I was younger (55 now) Got my LTC last year with the dreadful target restriction. Since then I've obtained Utah and CT non residents to try to build a case (just leverage that I'm licensed in other states)to have the restriction removed. Was told by firearms officer to write the Chief and LT. a letter voicing my case. We will see. Great forum. Lot of good help, people and advice.
Glad I joined
thx

Your best bet for success is to wait 2 years into having your LTC. Then write your chief as a request for your restrictions to be removed. This waiting period sometimes shows the chief that you've gone 2 years without incident and you know how to safely and legally handle firearms. While most on this forum will disagree against waiting, and bring up your rights to the second amendment, etc, it is unfortunately the sad state we live in. Best of luck with everything, and welcome.
 
Although I've been lurking around the site for about a year I might as well make an introduction.
My name is Mike, I'm 22 years old and lived in Chicopee, Ma all my life. Though my family has very little history with firearms, my relationship with video games growing up instilled a strong interest in the workings and ownership of them. There are few things in my life that I am more proud of than obtaining my non-restricted Class A LTC just 3 days ago in a town that less than a year ago was red as they get. I have already learned lots of information from the forum while watching from afar and I hope to now be able to contribute to discussions and hopefully give knowledge to newcomers down the road.

Hello Greg,

welcome
 
New-ish member in Framingham, MA. Been lurking for a month or two with a few posts. Just picked up my LTC-A last week, and looking forward to regular weekly range trips. Already can't wait for the weekend. Still deciding on what to purchase for my first pistol, whether to go with a full-size or a compact/sub-compact.
 
A returning shooter here. I live in Hudson, MA and just recently got my LTC. I've joined GOAL and the Harvard Sportsman's Club so I've got somewhere to shoot. I grew up shooting/hunting in southern WI but just got away from it. A teacher colleague is a firearms instructor and his schedule and mine finally synched up so I could take the class with him.
