I contacted the Chief of Police in my city via email in regards to what I could do about getting my restrictions lifted. He responded in part "we have several thousand licenses of various types, within the city, many with required legal restrictions, under current Massachusetts law." Now I am relatively new to the Massachusetts gun scene but I know what I can and can't do with my license I simply do not have the time to go over the entire section in the MGL's that pertain to firearm licensing and owning a firearm.
This phrase stood out because I thought restrictions were at the discretion of the CLEO. I have never heard about "required legal restrictions." Could anyone shed some light on this for me. Are there even such restrictions?
