I am buying a rifle from a guy in Rhode Island. I am Mass resident. Do I do a transfer in a Mass gun shop or a Rhode Island gun shop? Any help would be great. Thanks.
 
Yep, RI has no license requirement for possession and transport of a long gun, so you can do it at either a MA or a RI FFL. If it's a MA shop and the seller is going to bring the gun up personally, make sure they comply with 129C (transport unloaded and in a case). If it is a large capacity rifle, you're much better off not having the seller bring it into MA without a permit.
