Do I need to Register my Luger?

The Worm · 04-26-2011, 12:46 AM

I am new here and have been searching for an answer and come up with a lot of fuzzy answers. Searching did however lead me here and I am hoping someone can help me.

I will be inheriting a Luger shortly from a relative that has no children to leave it to. It was left to him by another relative who acquired it from a friend that served. I am very excited about getting it and look forward to firing it. I just have no idea what steps I have to take when I receive it. I live in Massachusetts which as everyone knows is very strict when it comes to guns. I asked this question in another forum and some members laughed and said don't say or anything. I am just afraid that if I bring it to the range some day and get pulled over god forbid and have an unregistered firearm, that it will be taken away. Then I have to explain to my relative that the gun he gave me that has been in this country for 70 years, has been confiscated after being in my possession for one day.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated. This is my last resort for trying to find info and I am thankful for all that is given. Thanks again.
