AI Summary
This bill amends Section 131F of Chapter 140 of the General Law to allow certain non-resident individuals to apply for a License to Carry Firearms in Massachusetts. Specifically, the bill allows individuals who previously held a valid License to Carry Firearms in Massachusetts and either: 1) own property used as a personal residence in the state for at least 30 days per year, 2) maintain a vehicle registered in the state, 3) attend school in the state, or 4) own a business in the state, to apply for a new license. This provides an exception to the general requirement that an applicant for a License to Carry Firearms must be a current resident of Massachusetts.
