Re: WMBDC SxS Summer Classic in Massachusetts
In case some were wondering about Mass gun laws:
(A) I am not an attorney, nor do I play one on TV, nor do I give any legal advice.
(B) I am a CT resident.
(C) I am an officer of the Western Mass Bird Dog Club, at which I shoot and hunt at.
(D) I am a certified SCTP Youth Shooting Sports coach for the Nutmeg Clay Crushers out of the Hartford Gun Club. We travel with minors, with firearms, with ammunition into (and through) MA to shoot at competitions in MA and the region.
(E) I am an NRA certified RSO.
With that said...my interpretations at the basic level:
(1) When transporting firearms in MA, they must be in a locked hard case.
(2) When transporting ammunition in MA, it must be in a separate, from firearms, locked hard case.
(3) Do not bring a semi-auto in MA from out of state.
(4) Non-Mass residents may hunt and attend shooting competitions in Mass.
Please read the following advisory statement from Attorney Neil Tassel sent to the Minute Man Sportsman's Club on the subject of non-resident range use (and firearms) and make your own judgement:

Re: WMBDC SxS Summer Classic in Massachusetts
kinda takes the joy out of an event having to have review legal documents that seem somewhat ambiguous to layman 
thanks to attorney for trying to clarify

What in the Sam Hill happened to the state where the revolution started? Maryland is bad enough but I really feel sorry for you MA residents who only want to exercise your 2nd amendment right. How much longer will they be poking the bear before the bear says enough?

Mass gun laws aside, I would recommend this event to anyone in the area. I shot this course last year for an RGS fundraiser, and it is a really fun and well laid out course. The club is great and all the members I interacted with great guys. I am sure this will be a fun day.
