I looked on the MA approved roster and found the 627-5 but is the V-Comp with its 8 round cylinder approved in MA?? I was planning on purchasing one and did not want to have trouble transferring it locally.
For whatever it's worth I have seen 627 V comps in MA, so that would tell me some dealers think they are compliant. I almost bought one... but didn't quite have the coin at the time.
