If LEO had any interest in pinching people at the convenience store they would do it with drug dealers. They don’t. They like to play stormtrooper so they bust doors, because they like it and because they can. If they confiscate in CT they will do it like they did it in NOLA. They will go door to door with stormtroopers.
That said, they won’t confiscate. They will talk tough but not do anything and just be happy that you can’t buy or sell any of those evil rifles any more.
I think Waco actually precludes them from doing another Waco, especially with the current cultural climate in the US. It could spark the Civil War everyone speculates about.
