So, there I was in a NH shop (which shall remain nameless) the other day and I saw an informational sign which said something like this: "If you can demonstrate property ownership in NH, we can sell you things which you may not acquire in MA." I am, of course, paraphrasing.
Now, I may have read the sign wrong, but it certainly got me thinking about what can and cannot be done. Hypothetically, I purchase property in NH, but maintain my principal residence in MA. I cannot purchase a handgun from a NH dealer and take posession in NH since my legal residence is still MA.
However, I can purchase any long gun from a NH dealer (but not from a vanilla NH resident in a private sale). The only problem would be in bringing it back into MA. If I have property in NH and leave the longarm there, I'm golden. If I ever wanted to subsequently sell it, it would have to go to or through a NH FFL.
So, how does all this sound if I ever feel a need for a high capacity rifle with a bayonet lug, pistol grip, and flash hider?
Please critique and add other variants. This is all hypothetical, after all.
