MA just copied the CA gun laws. The law was originally written to remove cheap Saturday night specials. They then stared to add all sorts of requirements on to existing laws. The OLD Rugers can not be sold here due to the lack of mag disconnect and load indicators. Of course to make sure the law passed they allowed the police to be exempt from the requirements. If the gun is not on the "not unsafe roster" then you can only buy it from some one who has it already in CA in a person to person sale, at a FFL01 store and $35 for registration. There are now problems with police buying the non CA guns and "realizing" they do not like the gun so they sell them for a high profit. Read the law and as in CA there are ways around them if you want something bad enough, getting rid of the jerks in power in CA is not an option but we try.

NRA is not doing anything worthy about this law.

My MKIII 4 inch has both a magazine disconnect and a loaded chamber indicator. It and the 6 inch Standard are on the CA list.

AMEN TO THAT! I hate it when people outside of California tell me "if you don't like your laws then change them". As if we could!
