I have a friend who is about to move from AL to Mass. and he owns a pretty standard 16" carbine AR and probably a few magazines.

I would like to give him a heads-up if he's thinking about taking his rifle. Maybe it's legal as is?, but probably not.

Please @ me if you reply.

Absolutely no mags larger than 10 rounds. Pre-ban mags were legal to buy and sell for a while but the cutoff date has passed.

I'm not sure if an AR15 can be brought in anymore but I believe the answer is no. Post ban configuration was ok for a while.

Others here have more knowledge about MA law than me.

Thanks for the reply!

I just texted him about the magazine restrictions and told him his AR is likely illegal to own there and to do his due diligence on gun laws before he becomes a felon. He replied back said he was going to sell them before he leaves.

EDIT: to clairfy "them" as he is selling his AR and mags at the minimum.

EDIT2: I'm buying another AR and a few 30rd mags.
