ABSOLUTELY NOT

Part I, Chapter 140 Section 131 (d)(i) of the Massachusetts general laws prohibits this person from EVER being granted permission to carry or use a firearm.

Federal criminal laws also could be used to prosecute the person if caught with a gun. The sentence for possession of a gun or ammunition by a felon is an automatic 5 years minimum.

This person may NEVER carry or own a gun or ammunition ANYWHERE in the United States.

What kind of drugs are you on ??? Smoking something??? Are you nuts? Murder--get a gun? To kill someone else?  Yea--give him a gun. Maybe he will take some of your drugs and shoot himself !

what the hell are you two smoking why dont you recheck the law when it comes to juve arrests and convictions if the record is sealed then yes you can how do i know because i have 4 juve felonys and my record is sealed and i have a ccw and three hand guns so check the facts regarding juve not adult and if you dont believe me call the ATF and just so you know ccw is a concealed carry license so that means i can carry my guns without you knowing it seriously call the ATF "Linda" and check the no where in the U S thing

personal experience always trumps book smarts

yes yes yes the other two guys are noobs seriously im sorry but i had to re comment i cant believe linda there had balls the to say nowhere in the united states wow you are mo tarded seriously if your going to answer peoples questions on these kind of web sites maybe you should actually research before you answer cause now you look like an idiot did you call the ATF yet are are you so embarrassed that you wont respond

personal experience always trumps book smarts

And you mr what kind of drugs are you on.  What gives you the right to judge other people huh especially telling him to commit suicide maybe you should so that you can no longer post your stupid asinine responses on web sites and on top of that so what if he has a murder charge he was a juve maybe he learned his lesson or maybe he didn't i dont know but doesn't give you the right to think that you can make him feel worse about what he did now all he can do is try to become a productive member of society like i did so in your face go do some drugs and try to off yourself but lets hope you miss and hit your pc instead that way you can see how much a dumbass you are

Federal law says that a felon is a person convicted of a crime which can carry punishment of more than 1 year, as defined by the laws of the state.  In Massachusetts the following copy of the law (from the Massachusetts web site listing their statutes) specifically bars a person from owning a gun who has an adult OR JUVENILE felony conviction.  The only way around this is to obtain both state and federal waiver from this disability. You have to follow the laws - which you can look up on the web site listing the laws. I doubt that anyone will give a person convicted of murder even as a teen a waiver.

The ATF does not control Massachusetts law. Federal law requires the feds including the ATF to follow the state laws. Massachusetts specifically bars ownership of guns by convicted felons, juvenile or adults.

"In the Know" apparently doesn't know how to read federal and state law. It is probably that he is illegally in possession of firearms. His emotional and insulting statements about your question suggest he may have a mental health problem. This could be a danger to society if he owns firearms as he states. 

" (d) Any person residing or having a place of business within the jurisdiction of the licensing authority or any law enforcement officer employed by the licensing authority or any person residing in an area of exclusive federal jurisdiction located within a city or town may submit to such licensing authority or the colonel of state police, an application for a Class A or Class B license to carry firearms, or renewal of the same, which such licensing authority or said colonel may issue if it appears that the applicant is a suitable person to be issued such license, and that the applicant has good reason to fear injury to his person or property, or for any other reason, including the carrying of firearms for use in sport or target practice only, subject to such restrictions expressed or authorized under this section, unless the applicant:

  (i) has, in any state or federal jurisdiction, been convicted or adjudicated a youthful offender or delinquent child for the commission of (a) a felony; (b) a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for more than two years; (c) a violent crime as defined in section 121; (d) a violation of any law regulating the use, possession, ownership, transfer, purchase, sale, lease, rental, receipt or transportation of weapons or ammunition for which a term of imprisonment may be imposed; or (e) a violation of any law regulating the use, possession or sale of controlled substances as defined in section 1 of chapter 94C;
