Perhaps if you parse the language with a fine tooth comb you could possibly make the case that they aren't lying but IMhO they are putting out the idea that you can just go to another state, buy whatever you want and return to Massachusetts with it.
I'd call it lying and it's not because I can't spell "disingenuous".
(Okay, I had to look it up but I'm sticking to my point.)
Yet to avoid that hassle, [of Massachusetts gun laws] all one has to do is drive up a few miles to New Hampshire or Maine, where the process is far easier and the rules are looser. New Hampshire does not require background checks online, at gun shows, or in private sales; in Maine, gun dealers or purchasers don’t need to get a state license.
