H 2684 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to the return of firearms

HD 3200 requires gun retailers and gunsmiths to return firearms to customers without charging fees when the guns were temporarily stored for repairs, maintenance, or other services. This applies if the business stored the firearm without the owner's written permission. The bill ensures firearm owners can reclaim their property at no cost, modifying existing laws to prevent businesses from imposing storage fees for temporary arrangements. It directly affects firearm owners who leave guns with private businesses for short-term service needs.
