[Schipperke]

My wife was at a huge Bass Pro Shop in MA today. Sent some photos. Asked her to pick me up various ammo. She couldn't, need a license.. smh

Same state that banned Crossman wrist rockets...

I was up there on a job. I went into a local gun store and it was the same story.

****Wow! Thats amazingly inexpensive. They are $1.99 each at Dickerson Market here in Maryland!

Dickerson market prices are outrageous. The chicken there couple days ago I'd classify as sub miniature, and they want close to $20 for eight pieces.

I was in a shop in Mass. almost 20 years ago and they had a really good price on surplus NATO .308. I carted all they had, at least 1000 rounds, up to the counter and asked if they had anymore. The guy says, "judging by your accent, you're not from around here are you?" Nope, Maryland. "I REALLY wish I could sell it to you, but you need a permit to buy ammo in this state." So, pretend you mailed it to me. "I can't do that, don't want to get into trouble." I guess he didn't believe in Capitalism. We both lost.

We used to get moonpies for free. Only downside is that some of them were stepped on.
Mobile has some great Mardi Gras parades.

****I‘m already getting ready for our weekend hammer fest bike ride (really a bike race, just not officially..), and Dickerson Market will be our rest stop before heading out to Buckeystown and then back through Barnesville and eventually Poolesville!

If it’s really hot, I’ll have Hostess Snow Balls with the coconut shavings on them! Lots of hunters there in the morning getting that fried chicken as well as biscuits and gravy with like extra gravy and other stuff they sell there. Popular place.

It is an expensive place though. That port a potty on the side can’t be free, nor the nice dumpster in the back we all pee by when the line is long to get into the port a potty!

MA just banned pre-94 evil black rifles and >10rd mags too. In the 11 days before the grandfathering date, prices nationwide went up

Are the people too stupid to drive out of State for them?

 

[RFBfromDE]

And they still celebrate Patriots Day.

Irrelevant. MA bans possession of mags exceeding 10 rounds.

The exception is only for magazines purchased prior to the ban.

There is no way of telling the difference.

We know that. They can arrest anyone for violating the magazine ban, unless you can PROVE it was purchased pre ban.

It’s illegal to buy a magazine in PA or Maine and bring it to Massachusetts.

I suspect that gun stores in NH will be doing good business on pre-94 mags now.

The law is changing from that. Under the bill the governor signed, only pre-94 mags possessed before 8/1/2024 can be kept by the person who had them from that date. They can also only be stored unloaded, possessed and used on private property with permission, and bequeathed or transferred to a dealer or someone out of state.

 

[BurkeM]

Yup. Clear as mud.
