Hunters, first-time LTC holders, competitive shooters, and families — here's what neighbors say about buying at Outback.

★★★★★

"First handgun purchase and I was nervous about all the MA paperwork. They walked me through the LTC steps, no rushing, no judgment. Left with a Shield and actually understood what I bought."

Marissa R.First-time LTC holder · Kingston
★★★★★

"Traded in two older deer rifles toward a new bolt gun. Their offer beat the shop in Brockton by a good margin and they explained every number. Straight shooters — pun intended."

Tom D.Deer hunter · Middleboro
★★★★★

"I shoot USPSA most weekends and these guys keep the optics and ammo I actually need. FFL transfer on my competition pistol was quick and the fee was fair."

Jesse C.Competitive shooter · Plymouth
★★★★★

"Took the Saturday safety class as a family. Instructor was patient with my teenagers and made the range time genuinely fun. Certificate in hand for our FID applications."

Karen S.Safety class · Halifax
★★★★★

"Ordered a rifle online and had it shipped here for transfer. They texted me the moment it landed and had me out the door same day. This is my shop now."

Anthony P.FFL transfer · Carver
★★★★★

"Been collecting for 20 years and these folks know their older iron. Consigned a couple pieces and they moved fast at prices I was happy with. Real community shop."

Massachusetts: where firearms and freedom were forged.

This isn't just where we do business — it's the ground where American liberty was won. From the first musket carried ashore near our own hometown, to the embattled farmers of Lexington and Concord, to the great armories that armed a young republic, the Commonwealth taught the nation that a free people should be a capable one. Outback Arms carries that trust forward — lawful, careful, and proud of it.

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,their flag to April's breeze unfurled,here once the embattled farmers stood,and fired the shot heard round the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson · “Concord Hymn,” 1837
  1. 1620
    Plymouth Colony The musket comes ashore

    The Pilgrims step off the Mayflower carrying matchlock muskets — the first firearms of a new society — a short ride from the fields that would become Plympton, our hometown. Survival and self-reliance are one and the same.

  2. 1636
    Massachusetts Bay Every able citizen a defender

    The colony organizes its towns into the first standing militia regiments in America — the direct ancestor of today's National Guard. From the very start, freedom is understood as a shared duty, not a spectator sport.

  3. 1773
    Boston Harbor Defiance in the harbor

    Colonists send 342 chests of tea into the water rather than bow to a distant crown. The Commonwealth's stubborn spirit of self-reliance lights the fuse of a revolution.

  4. 1775
    Lexington & Concord The shot heard round the world

    On the morning of April 19, minutemen answer the alarm. At Concord's North Bridge, ordinary farmers stand against an empire — and the first shots of American independence ring out across the countryside.

  5. 1794
    Springfield Arming a young republic

    George Washington's arsenal at Springfield becomes the nation's first national armory. For nearly two centuries it forges American arms and pioneers interchangeable parts — the spark of American manufacturing itself.

  6. 1852
    The Commonwealth The workshop of American arms

    Smith & Wesson, Savage, and Harrington & Richardson rise across Massachusetts. Yankee ingenuity, industrialized — the Bay State becomes the beating heart of American firearms making.

We stand on the shoulders of embattled farmers, colonial gunsmiths, and armory hands who believed a free people should be a capable one. Every transfer we run and every class we teach carries that legacy forward — lawfully, carefully, and with respect for those who came before.

MA has its own rules, and we walk every customer through them. No surprises at the counter.

Answers Before You Ask

Frequently asked questions.

How long does a background check take in Massachusetts?
Usually just a few minutes. Massachusetts uses an electronic system at our counter, so approved buyers with a valid LTC or FID almost always walk out the same day — trigger lock included, as state law requires.
Do you do FFL transfers, and what's the fee?
Yes — bought a gun online or from an out-of-state seller? Have them ship it to Outback Arms LLC, 376 Main Street, Plympton, MA 02367. We charge a flat per-firearm transfer fee that covers the background check and paperwork. We'll text you the moment it arrives.
How do I get my Massachusetts LTC or FID card?
First you need a state-approved firearms safety certificate, then you apply through your local police department. We run Mass-approved safety classes every Saturday that give you exactly that certificate. Reserve a seat →
Is everything on your site actually MA-compliant?
Yes. Every firearm on our floor is legal to sell in Massachusetts, and handguns come from the state's approved roster. What you see listed is what you can legally buy here — no bait-and-switch at the counter.
How does a trade-in work?
Bring your firearm in (or send photos) and we'll make an honest offer — cash, store credit at a higher value, or consignment. We log every transaction legally through our FFL. Try the quick estimator for a ballpark first.
Can you ship a gun to me?
Firearms ship dealer-to-dealer only. If you're out of the area, we ship to a licensed FFL near you and you complete the transfer and background check there. Ammo and accessories can ship where legal.
Can I put a gun on hold?
Absolutely. Use the "Hold This Gun" button on any product or the intake form. We'll hold it up to 48 hours while we confirm details — no payment required to start.
Do I need to be 21? What about long guns?
You must be 21+ for handguns and ammunition, and hold the correct MA license. Rifles and shotguns may be available to 18+ FID holders. Our staff will confirm exactly what your license allows — just ask.
