I am a MA resident, with a class A unrestricted LTC. I’m trying to buy an H&K P2000 9mm through a private sale from a friend who is a non FFL dealer (private party) in Texas. It is my understanding that although the weapon is not on the MA approved handgun roster, the sale can be made as long as the proper transfer paperwork is filed with MA, and that basically the approved handgun roster only applies to firearms that can be sold by licensed dealers in MA, and therefore would not prevent a private sale of a gun that is not on the roster. Could someone with a working knowledge of MA regulations chime in on this please?
Thanks very much in advance!!
