GUN LICENSE DENIALS: "a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Second Amendment to the United States Constitution Has your gun license been suspended, revoked or denied? Have you been told by the gun licensing officer in your town or city that you are "UNSUITABLE?" Has your gun license application been denied? If so, you must contact my office IMMEDIATELY. There is a very short statute of limitations whereby you must file a petition in court to preserve your legal rights. Below are the different types of gun licenses in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts: Effective June 1, 1998, the new firearm law creates two types of licenses to carry (LTC): CLASS “A" LTC: Permits the purchase, possession and carrying of all ammunition, handguns, rifles, shotguns and feeding devices (both large and non-large capacity). This is the only license that allows the carrying of concealed handguns-either loaded or unloaded. CLASS “B" LTC: Permits the purchase, possession and carrying of all ammunition, non-large capacity handguns, and all rifles and shotguns (large and non-large capacity).  Class "A" and Class "B" License to Carry (LTC) InformationYour current LTC will be valid until its stated expiration date. New applicants must be 21 years of age or older to obtain a Class “A" or Class “B" permit. New applicants must complete a Mass. certified firearms safety course or a BASIC HUNTER EDUCATION COURSE. Class “A" and “B" LTC cost $100.00 and are valid for 6 years. Firearms Identification (FID) CardsThe new FID card permits the purchase, possession and carrying of NON-LARGE CAPACITY RIFLES, SHOTGUNS and AMMUNITION ONLY. You must be at least 18 years old (or 15 - 17 years old with parental consent) to apply for an FID card. The fee for an FID card is $100.00 and it is valid for 6 years. New applicants must complete a Mass. approved firearms safety course or a BASIC HUNTER EDUCATION COURSE. A restricted FID card is available solely for the possession of mace or pepper spray. Applicants for the restricted FID are exempt from the education requirement.  District of Columbia v. Heller (2008) is a landmark legal case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that the Second Amendment
to the United States Constitution protects an individual's
right to possess a firearm for private use.
It was the first Supreme Court case in United States history to directly address whether the right to keep and bear arms is a right of individuals or a collective right that applies
only to state-regulated militias.
