The dealers have some leeway with what proof they will accept
 
While I'm a Paramedic, I do not have any company ID as I haven't worked in that role in years. According to their program rules, I'm supposed to have ID and just having the License isn't supposed to qualify. Now then, it is true (apparently) that the dealers have some leeway as to what they will accept. If my Paramedic License happens to be accepted by a dealer as proof...

I'm not active right now and I found two dealers that will accept my license. I'll bet you could find one that will allow you to qualify.

I don't know anything about glocks, because MA thinks they are too scary and kill-y to be allowed here unless you're a police officer.

Wait...your state banned a brand?

NJ bans specific gun makes.

For example "M1 Carbine types" are banned, but so are brands such as "SIG assault rifle looking types".

If MA generalized it further to just banning brands of handguns altogether that wouldn't be surprising.
 
That type of idiocy is the main reason I could never live in the northeast again.

All of my AR-15 magazines are 20-year-old GI issue metal ones... And I paid $50 a piece for them :(

However, regarding the glocks... Apparently, as of September 2015 (!!) glocks are on the approved firearms list! Just, you probably need a special magazine to neuter the capacity down to 10 rounds. http://www.mass.gov/eopss/docs/chsb/firearms/approvedfirearmsroster05-2015.pdf

There is a court case (or two) in California that challenged type/brand/series. Guess who won? Not the State... The ruling (I think it was in the 9th Circuit Appeals court) that said that firearms can not be banned by "series." If they're going to be banned, it has to be by both make and model. So what ended up happening was a number of enthusiasts started making their own rifles, designated by make and model, so when California got around to administratively adding that make/model to the list, since they couldn't take the guns away, they had to be registered as "Assault Weapons" so suddenly hundreds, if not thousands of new AW registrations happened, and all of those AW owners can put all the "evil features" that their rifles were not previously allowed to have until they were registered as an AW...

So.... in short, banning by "series" or by appearance could be easily challenged in court and there is precedent for it, just not directly in that circuit.
