I always lived in MA, but on the border with NH. In my many decades of owning guns, I never had to deal with recording an ammunition purchase or a gun purchase for that matter. I paid cash for the ammunition and guns, filled out ATF yellow form and went home. Very easy. Never had a problem.I am old enough to remember when it was required in Massachusetts. It didnt take long before it went away. Ammunition logs are pretty useless and generate a crapload of records pretty fast.

I was a long time ago. whether You paid cash or credit didn’t matter. They used keep the log by the cash register. It was probably back in the early to mid 80’s. I’m sure that there are others that remember it as well.

I have some local logs from the 70's that have pages of ammo sales, with type, quantity, name and address.
I worked at Spag's a bit early 90's, and never saw any of that.I remember buying ammo at Spags back in the 1970s-80s and having to provide personal info for the ammo log. It was a federal requirement at that time.
That law was rescinded before 1990 IIRC. It was useless and finally congress agreed to kill it.I worked at Spag's a bit early 90's, and never saw any of that.
