NRA Files Amicus Brief in Challenge to Massachusetts’s Nonresident Carry Restrictions
On August 16, the NRA and the Second Amendment Foundation filed an amicus brief supporting a challenge to Massachusetts’s carry restrictions for nonresidents.
The brief argues that Massachusetts’s nonresident licensing scheme violates the Second Amendment because it is overly burdensome and unsupported by a historical tradition of regulation.
Throughout American history, nonresidents were never subject to greater restrictions than residents. When nonresidents were treated differently, it was always to provide them greater carry protections. But Massachusetts’s licensing regime is significantly more burdensome for nonresidents than residents, often requiring multiple trips to the Commonwealth—in addition to other burdensome requirements—to acquire a nonresident carry license that is valid for only one year.
