Massachusetts Firearms Registration and Transfer System
Use this link to record all firearms transactions.
Massachusetts law requires all residents to report any sale or transfer (including gifts) of a weapon within 7 days of the transaction. Massachusetts law also requires all residents to report the acquisition of a weapon within 7 days in certain instances.
The E-FA-10 replaces Form FA-10, the three-part form previously used to file a weapon transaction record and is the current "form" furnished by the Commissioner of the DCJIS in accordance with G.L. c. 140, §§ 128A and 128B.
Use this form to correct inaccurate information included on a submitted E-FA-10 transaction record.
