So I have two different situations here. I ask because I don't know, so that I may learn.
My dad had an FID card back in the day that said it wouldn't expire. I learned from Scouter-Rick that they did expire, and when I told my dad it upset him because he thought he was covered. He owns a rifle. I have told him to just apply for his class A (since he lives in Waltham we know it'll be restricted, but it's the same cost so why not go for his class A?).
Anyway - say he chooses not to. How do we go about legally transferring ownership of the rifle to me?
Next - my brother, and one of my best friends live in NH. I have done some shooting in my brothers back yard with his guns, and my friends brother works at SIG and can bring guests to the range.
I know I can't buy a handgun in NH and just bring it back here. However, can I buy a gun in NH if I leave it in NH (say in a locked box in my brothers gun safe) or am I not allowed to purchase a handgun in NH at all? And my friends brother who works at SIG can buy 4 guns a year with a discount - if he'd be willing to buy one for me, how would I go about being able to bring it into MA? Would he buy it and then I'd have him ship it to a dealer here?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
