Yesterday on WGBH, one of the talk show hosts claimed they attended a gun show in NH and found plenty of people willing to sell to them. They did not indicate if they'd identified themselves as MA residents, or if they were attempting to buy a long gun or hand gun.
What is the obligation of a private seller, in NH or any other state, to verify that the person they are selling to is a resident of their state (for a handgun), not a PP, and if resident of another state, can lawfully own a long gun?
Is this federal law, or stat-to-state?
I'm writing a response.
