Ditto, I would also be more activate in this thread if I didn't live in CT. I try to avoid all these nice toys that only make me sad. Nothing special here: CZ-75 9mm, Charterarms 357 revolver, mosin, SKS, 30-06 for hunting (of which I've done none, because CT) and a nice 12g ASI that I recently got off Bud's. The last is a Benelli clone that a friend got and its spread was so great I had to buy one for $200 shipped.

So, as someone who does not live in the U.S. (but may at some point in the future, who knows) I want to ask;

How does that work, from what I can figure out, it means "Deep pockets" for a tax stamp or something right?

they Banned "Full fun mode" up here in 1979 if you had one, you got a special "12.x" license (grandfather clause) if you didn't...you may NEVER have one.

is it really as simple as clearing a Background check, picking the right state and having a bunch of cash? I mean a fully operational Ak would be tits...I got to say.

I currently have a Russian SKS, a Winchester 2400 12ga, and a little lakefield arms semi-auto .22

have been looking at "black rifles" and pistols for ever, but there comes a serious $$$/ buearocatic nightmare here for the real fun stuff.

Can't fit all mine in one picture.. Also they're spread out in different locations in case of fire, or one of my vaults gets blown open. I will post a few of the ones I like.

Somebody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Transfer has to be done through a class 3 dealer. Go to the dealer, pay for pre ban gun. Submit paperwork for tax stamp. Go to chief law enforcement officer ask him to sign off on it saying he approves, get finger prints done. Send in for stamp and wait 6+ months to get it back then go pick up your full auto goodness. You can skip the cleo part if you get a trust setup to own the weapon or have an LLC. Tax stamp is 200, trust is 100+, and full auto goodness ranges greatly in price, check gun broker or something to get an idea.

As far as I was aware, CT now has the strictest of gun laws, anything AR is banned. You can at least have one. In CT: You could not purchase an "assault weapon" after the bill's passing last April. If you had an AR then, you had the oppurtunity to sell it out of state. As of January 1st, if you had an AR you had to register it with the state. If you didn't register it, you are now a class D felon. Same with high cap magazines 10+ meant you had to register it even if for a pistol.

And a hilarious news artcile about how LITTLE we are giving a shit.

Tens of thousands of Connecticut residents could soon be considered felons by the state if they continue to ignore restrictive new gun control laws passed last year shortly after an armed rampage at an area elementary school left more than two dozen dead.


Last April, Governor Dannel Malloy signed into law a slew of new firearm restrictions that require, among other items, residents to register powerful assault weapons and high-capacity magazine with the state.


Connecticutians had until the end of last year — almost one year to the day after the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre — to license their arsenals. Only a fraction has followed the new law, however, and they could all soon face serious consequences if the state decides to take action.



On Thursday this week, journalist Dan Haar of Connecticut’s The Courant newspaper wrote that state police had received only 47,916 completed registration forms by the end of last year. According to his reporting, that statistic is just a sliver of what it should be.



If the state has received 50,000 registrations by now, Haar wrote, then that could represent as little as 15 percent of the assault weapons now classified by the state as warranting new paperwork under last April’s law.



“No one has anything close to definitive figures, but the most conservative estimates place the number of unregistered assault weapons well above 50,000, and perhaps as high as 350,000,” Harr wrote.
“And that means as of Jan. 1, Connecticut has very likely created tens of thousands of newly minted criminals — perhaps 100,000 people, almost certainly at least 20,000 — who have broken no other laws By owning unregistered guns defined as assault weapons, all of them are committing Class D felonies,” he added.



Other reports out of New England this week suggested that lawmakers there are wrestling with how to handle registration forms that weren’t sent in ahead of the end-of-year deadline and therefore now considered illegal unless officials find a loophole.



“We’re trying to figure a way to accommodate the small number of people. Do we do it legislatively? Can we do it administratively?” Rep. Stephen Dargan, co-chairman of the Public Safety Committee, told the CT News junkie website this week. “Whatever our focus is, it has to be narrow in scope because it might open it up to other people’s concerns.”

As Harr reports, however, officials may have a much larger problem: while an estimated few hundred residents may have sent their registration forms in a day or two past deadline, a group of people estimated to be several times that size reportedly show no interest in submitting applications at all.



"I honestly thought from my own standpoint that the vast majority would register," said State Sen. Tony Guglielmo (R-Stafford) of the legislature's public safety committee said to Harr. "If you pass laws that people have no respect for and they don't follow them, then you have a real problem."

My wife's birthday is today.... And I am seriously considering buying her a Ruger LC9 with crimson trace laser.....

[agent]

Look at the Sig P290RS. Comes with a laser and night sights, and has a much better trigger feel. IMO of course.

[myinfernalbmw]

Ish God no. I dumped the LC9 due to its shitty trigger. I now have a Kahr CM9 for a sub compact gun. It's trigger pull is long but smooth.

Read a lot of reviews and try to hold/dryfire all of them.

Reliable but all the "safety" features and horrid trigger make it far from my favorite.

Does not have a great reliability record and the trigger is better but not great.

CM9 is a great sub-sub-compact gun. Trigger is amazing, reliability is a bit hit or miss. If after a couple hundred rounds it's 100% reliable then you're golden.

Since she'll probably be carrying in her purse, you can afford to go a little larger. S&W Shield (my choice), Glock 26/27 or Springfield XDS are great options.

Been looking at a few guns for a bit as i believe there is a way to obtain an arizona carry permit while I live in NY. First gun is actually a .22 henry survival rifle. Just want something to be able to pack when I backpack and the feature of containing everything in the stock is appealing. As far as hand guns, have shot a few and I really like glocks. Have tried a few different models but would love what you guys recommend for a first time gun owner.

[myinfernalbmw]

If you like Glocks then my suggestion is buy a G19 and be forever happy with your purchase.

My choice would be a gen4 specifically. Ymmv
