Can I legally bring my 9mm semi-auto from my home in MA to my fathers house in RI to show him how it operates?
Thank you

Short answer, no. You can transport to a range, gunsmith, gun store, and a few other limited options. Or you can transport THROUGH the state with no intention of detaining yourself in RI.
