  1. Yep, I'd move South. We don't have all that nonsense down here.

    Move South? I'd love to but I don't think I will ever be in a position to retire. I think the states above me ( VT/ NH/ ME) still have easier gun regs. I don't know if what I have will cover me up there?

    As for the gun regs, some of the stuff is a good idea. Or I can understand the benifit of some of the regs anyway since I was almost a victom myself of being shot at 5 years old by a 6 year old. Keeping guns away from people who don't have a clue reguardless of their age is a good idea. BM, I lived, slept ,ate ,walked and talked guns. Now 30 somethin years later without guns I can admit I'm a little uncomfortable around them and really need to ask questions from those who are familar with them. I'm sure it will take months for me to decide what the heck I'm going to get if anything. I mean I been without one for this long??? I'm thinking joining the rod and gun around the corner is my best next step.

  2. "Local police departments have the authority to issue gun permits. Such permits include licenses to carry (L.T.C.) and firearm identification cards (F.I.D.). There are two types of licenses to carry. A Class A license to carry allows an individual to purchase, possess and carry large-capacity handguns, rifles, shotguns and feeding devices. A Class A license to carry is the only permit that authorizes a holder to carry a concealed and loaded firearm. A Class B license to carry permits a holder to purchase, possess, and carry non-large capacity handguns and large-capacity rifles and shotguns.

    There are also two types of firearm identification cards. Unrestricted firearm identification cards allow for the possession of non-large capacity rifles and shotguns. The restricted version of the card is available solely for the possession of chemical sprays.

    Massachusetts gun laws require that all firearms, rifles, and shotguns be stored in a secured, locked container or equipped with a tamper resistant mechanical lock or other safety devices properly engaged as to render the weapon inoperable by unlawful users. Moreover, every firearm and large capacity weapon sold in the Commonwealth must be equipped with a safety device (trigger lock) designed to prevent its discharge by an unauthorized user.

    "

  3. These are the different permit classes from online.

    I believe class B you can carry a pistol or revolver but it needs to be in a lock box at all times. I think it can only be used for target. I'll see if I can find my book to be sure.

    Firearms Identification Card - Restricted (mace and pepper spray)

    Firearms Identification Card

    Class B License to Carry - Non-Large Capacity

    Class A License to Carry - Large Capacity

    License to Possess a Machine Gun

    Check if a Class A Gun Club License *NOTE: Only the Colonel of the State Police can issue a club license.

    I think this is the reason I didn't maintain my FID way back when I had one. I didn't want to go check the regulations every time I though about pulling out a gun.

  4. Is there a "purpose" listed on your FID? Or does that only apply to hand-guns, there?

    I'll have to do some research on that question but I believe it is for all lawfull purposes. It would include for protection of life and property. The permit reads:

    Commonwealthg of Massachusetts

    ____________________________________

    Class A Large capacity

    license to carry firearms(M.G>L>c 140.&131)

    restrictions: none

    I'll probably just get a shotgun and go hunting up by you at Lake Winni even though I almost hit a deer here on the next street over this morning up . I have a buddy there in Alton Bay.

  5. What gun do ya think I should buy? the 410 pistol that started my whole trek last winter is illegal in Ma...

    Not sure anymore? I saw the Taurus Judge and thought I wanted it.

    Then I found out Taurus doesn't submit for

    Ma compliance. Then it became a matter of principle of getting the permit since I started last winter. I didn't get a FID. I got a class a large capacity. Its been so long I better go take classes again. I think I can do anything lawful in Ma with that other that automatic.

    I always wanted a 410 and a 16 gauge for hunting but I stopped hunting 30 something years ago.I probably can't walk the 10 miles a day like I use to.

  6. Well I got out today and the results of the storm reminds me a great deal of the perfect storm.

    The top of the channal marker blew over at the end of the channal. I don't think that has ever happened, not even in the blizzard of 78. Part of the sea wall at the harbor is being undermind from the land side. Can't say I ever saw that either.

  7. Wow hates to be you. Just like other places you live it is one thing or the next to deal with.

    For the time duration. This was the worst I've ever seen. Worse than the Perfect storm and worse than the blizzard of 78. We woulda been up shits creek if this storm lasted any amount of time. It went through more like a hurricane.... Blizzicane comes to mind.

  8. I went to Dallas yesterday for my Discography, CT scan and then to my Doc. I was in doctors offices-hospitals from 11:08 till about 440. Good news they finally see it all more clearly. Bad news I'm looking at a Lumbar spinal fusion L5 down, and artificial disc replacement in L4. This is what he is recommending. I meet with another surgeon on the 14 of Jan and will see what she confirms and recommends. Its been going on for over 2 years from a red light runner that T boned me. If you look under back pain procedures and treatments I have had everything and some of them twice. I just want off the roller coaster. Life is not going to get better for me as is. I'm almost 48 and in great health otherwise. I feel now days that they are better at it with all the new technology. One day at a time :605_thumbs_up:

    hope it works for ya. I have a son whoes back is junk(so he says) and has let pills solve his pain. The pills ruined everything else though. I don't think there is much room to get any lower for him. The tough part is there is nothing that is available for someone like that.

  9. You guys be careful driving and working in that stuff....Come on summer time!

    I'm gettin to old to do to much anymore. so I went back to having a truck with a plow. 2 years ago I shoveled my whole driveway though. 300 ft of 12" snow and maybe 10 feet of 2 1/2 plowpack at the street. I probably shouldn't have but I did :rolleyes:

  10. El Segundo, Calif. - Internet Brands, a network of over 100 websites across verticals including cars, jobs, health, travel and shopping, has been acquired by private equity firm Hellman and Friedman in a deal valued at $640 million.

    The firm will pay $13.35 per share, a premium of 46.5% over Internet Brands' most recent stock closing price.

    The company saw revenues of $99.8 million in 2009. PaidContent notes that Hellman and Friedman also owns Getty Images, as well as a stake in the Nielsen Company.

    By my own estimation I would imagine they came out about $500 million ahead - I could be wrong.

    Think it was difficult contacting someone before .... :1121_wink:

    :rb-rules:

    Hope you had some options @ $8
