Glock in CT Question.

People are not getting the 10 round limitation we have to endure when I asked this question. Maybe someone here can answer knowing that fact.

I admit this may be a stupid question. I own a 19 and 26 4th generation. I use the same full size mags between those two.

Now here is my concern. I will be getting a 34 eventually hopefully in 2025. Am I going to be able to easily distinguish the 34 from my current mags or are they too universal?

Can you buy Mini 14 tactical in CT?

I am looking to buy a mini 14 with a threaded barrel. Would loved to have the purchased the folding stock, but that’s banned. I believe the tactical has the threaded barrel, but comes with the flash suppressor which is not legal, so not sure if they sell any with the threaded barrel and the solid stock without a 20 round mag. Or, do you need to buy the ranch version and have the barrel threaded?

Renewal

I tried renewing my pistol permit by mail. I accidentally went past my 90 day grace period. I thought my permit said 8/27/24 for the expiration. It was sent back to me saying it was 99 days expired. I thought it was a mistake so I went to look again closely to my pistol permit & it actually says 8/07/24. It was a honest mistake. I live in NH. I don’t go to CT that often anymore. I called & emailed them to ask about this. If I do re-apply, do I have to retake the course or get finger printed? Do I have to drive to CT for anything or do I just re-apply with the application?

So I’m confused about the mag limits for pistols…

I know we can only carry 10 round mags but I thought we were still able to own bigger magazines for home and range use? Why would they pin your mag if your gun comes with a bigger magazine or force you to have two 10 rounds instead of the 10 and 13 the say m&p shield plus I’m interested in is supposed to come with?

ATF 4473 City Limits question

Hello All,

It's been several years since I've purchased a new firearm, and in doing a refresher on the 4473 form to pickup a purchase, I noticed again Question Box #10 on the form, "Do you reside in city limits?" Since I live in a town which is not classified as a city, I fear answering incorrectly, since they don't offer an option.

Best I gather is that the town, though not officially labeled that, is considered a city for this purpose, and living in it would imply a Yes answer

Any thoughts?

AR lowers

Hey everyone, I’m usually decently versed in CTs gun laws but this question came to mind. I have CT long gun permit, and I can’t buy unfinished receivers without a pistol permit for some reason but id like build a CT compliant set up (Non-semi auto like a straight pull), could I buy a finished lower that’s registered as non-semi auto or buy a completed rifle that’s been modified to be manually operated?

Video of 22/45 silencer with adapter

I see all these videos of 22/45’s with silencers. But here in CT we have to put that adapter at the end. I would like to see a video of a silencer being attached and removed from that.

Someone close to our family was arrested in Connecticut with their firearm on them !

Someone who is a family friend of ours was arrested about a month and a half ago and had their pistol on them. I was wondering what happens to the fire arm when they get arrested ? Also is there anyway I can find an update on her case( if she is in jail or not. ) We tried reaching out to her parents but did not hear anything. I typed in her name and all they gave me was a prior arrest from years ago. I’d like to be there for her but don’t really know how to as I don’t know if she’s in jail.

22/45 Multi-Part Question

Brief summary as to why. I recently decided no more guns for reasons of my own. I also decided going to limit the amount I will be shooting my two 9mms. Which brings me to the obvious I will be shooting primarily my 22/45.

Another thing and this is more of an OCD thing was I bought ahead of time this bag solely for a specific target pistol 9mm. But my recent decision voided that. So I am now with an extra bag and that bothers me.

So this morning I did some rearranging of my two bags. The larger of the two I made primarily for the two 9mm’s. I have all mag slots filled and some extra stuff in general I don’t need unless I bring a person with me.

The second bag I now made it primarily for the 22/45.

Now onto the question. I currently have 3 mags. 1 is always in the pistol and the other two filling 2 out of 6 mag slots.

So I ask this does it make sense to have all 6 slots mags filled which I would then have a total of 7 mags to shoot at a time?

If you say yes to the previous asked question where can I get the most affordable Ruger issued mags for my 22/45?

Note I already checked gun mag warehouse and he is selling pairs of the mags for $42.99 before tax and not sure if he will charge shipping. Also not sure if this a BF price.

Note: being this is a CT group I am willing to drive to a place. Distance is not a concern other than they must have them in stock upon my arrival.

General Consensus on Using AR MagLock in Connecticut?

Hi everyone,

I am trying to determine if using an AR MagLock or similar fixed magazine compliance device is a legal option here. The issue seems to be a lot of vagueness in Connecticut's firearm laws, particularly around these definitions:

  1. "Action of the weapon": Defined as the part of the firearm that loads, fires, and ejects a cartridge, including the upper and lower receiver, charging handle, forward assist, magazine release, and shell deflector.
  2. “Detachable magazine”: Defined as an ammunition feeding device that can be removed without disassembling the firearm action.

Based on these definitions, an AR MagLock (which requires the firearm to be slightly opened to remove the magazine) seems like it could/should comply. However, there has yet to be a definitive answer from DESPP/SFLU unfortunately. This leaves us in a gray area to question ourselves whether or not it complies with current firearm laws.

I've read through several discussions on this topic in this sub, but it seems there is a lot of mixed opinions mostly due to the fact that the manufacturers of these compliance devices do not strictly state compliance within Connecticut law. Some argue it's not worth the risk and potentially opening yourself to becoming an example/test case.

Another device that seems to be popular is the CompMag, which also isn't explicitly stated as Connecticut compliant but seems to be accepted by some people as worth the risk.

What I Know So Far:

  • AR MagLock: Requires the firearm to be partially disassembled (removing the takedown pin) to release the magazine.
  • CompMag: Completely locks the magazine in place and is loaded via the side port.
  • Cross Armory: Widely used and sold by CT FFLs, seems to be a safer bet since they've been more commonly adopted and do strictly "fix the magazine" as you cannot remove the takedown pin and drop the magazine. However, the AR MagLock appeals to me for its convenience, assuming it's legal.

My Questions:

  • Has anyone received a definitive answer on using an AR MagLock in CT?
  • Are there any cases or official statements I may have missed clarifying this?
  • What's the general consensus— potential "test case" or stick with something like Cross Armory that FFLs already sell and seem to trust?

Thanks in advance for any input! And if any FFL dealers are lurking, I’d absolutely love to hear your thoughts as well!

Question about assault weapon bans

I got a few lowers and got them registered for aw back in April just had a few questions are we still required to build them at 12 minimum barrel length or can we go shorter since they are assault weapons and use a brace or am I better off getting a tax stamp and putting a stock? Planing on doing a 9inch barrel.300 back out

Would an Iver Johnson 1911 A1 Carbine or conversion be legal in CT?

Just curious if this would qualify as an assault weapon under CT gun laws: https://iverjohnsonarms.com/1911a1-carbine.html

Depending on the answer, would a regular 1911 converted to the rifle using the Sarco kit also meet the same definition? https://www.sarcoinc.com/1911-stock-rig-conversion-set-stock-holster-barrel/

My gut reaction is that it depends on whether the “stock” configuration is considered a banned feature, since it’s this weird mix of being a pistol grip but also not being a pistol grip?

Looking for thoughts from the community. Relevant discussion (maybe?) from NY thread: Reddit · r/NYguns30+ comments · 2 years agoIver Johnson 1911 A1 Carbine .45 ACP legal in New York? Thanks : r/NYguns https://www.reddit.com/r/NYguns/comments/t2curv/iver_johnson_1911_a1_carbine_45_acp_legal_in_new/
