Pardon my ignorance, but doesn't the City of Boston have quite a few firearms regulations that go above and beyond the default MA regulations?

Also, airguns fall outside the definition of "firearm" in many states, thus making them exempt from state firearms preemption statutes. One would think that municipal governments would have better things to do than to over-regulate airguns, but some find excuses to do it anyway. (Again, pardon my ignorance, but I don't know how MA state law treats local airgun regulations.)
