I'm pretty sure the Mass law about carrying a rifle to church is no longer on the books. I've had occasion to pore over Mass gun laws, and haven't seen any such thing.
As for the Boston and North Andover ordnances...couldn't say for sure.
These are coming from DumbLaws.com.
I would like find where some of these are on the books:
Mass Law:
"All men must carry a rifle to church on Sunday."
Boston Law:
"No one may cross the Boston Common without carrying a shotgun in case of bears."
North Andover:
An ordinance prohibits the use of space guns.
I do not know if these are real or not, but would be interesting if they are.

They were real, but I know the church law was repealed.
