Not mentioned in the article is that fact that the Connecticut State Police carry the Glock 45 (9mm), as their primary duty weapon. The CSP is also tasked with providing security to both Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont (D), and Lt. Governor Susan Bysiewicz (D).

Consequently, the elected executive elitists in charge of Connecticut, are protected by the very Glock pistols that their Legislators want to ban for the great mass of unwashed plebes.

If I was running Glock I'd tell the State of Connecticut to pound sand and no longer sell or provide maintenance support for any Glock pistols currently in use by police departments in the state. If Connecticut government is going to criminalize ownership of Glocks, maybe their LE departments can start carrying SIGs like the P320 that has a history of going off by itself while still in the holster.

In Virginia they just banned a ton of stuff but they exempted members in the legislature from needing to follow it!

Some are more equal than others.

Blatantly unconstitutional and will be struck down. Glocks are in common use for lawful purposes all over the country.

Not relevant. The G45 is Gen6 and Gen6 doesn't have the cruciform trigger bar.

“Constitution State”.....LMAO.
Every time I see one of those CT plates with that on it, I literally bust out laughing out loud.
Perahaps it’s the old Soviet Union’s constiitution the communist basstids there are promoting? It sure as heck looks like it, sounds like it and smells like it.....spit.

The Supremes already ruled that you cannot ban the most popular guns. This is doomed to fail.

The way to visualize New England is as follows:
  1. Vermont is the mouth.
  2. Massachusetts is the colon.
  3. Connecticut is the rectum.

If the colonists at Bidwell's Tavern (the place where the colonists screwed the English by taking the Colony's Constitution and hide it in the Charter Oak) knew Connecticut would be a screwed up state, they would not have hid it.

Unfortunately, the cities are the blue area.... Connecticut is purple...

When I lived in Miami back in the 70’s there was a locally popular gun that was easily converted to automatic. It was an ugly little boxy looking thing. They could be found in pawn shops..etc. If I remember correctly all that needed to be done was to file a bit of metal off of a part of it and that was it.

They looked really cheaply made..

So sitting home and not voting in November means the Democrats will take my guns away. But I will FEEL GOOD about it, because I taught my RINO a lesson!

Sound about right, Purists?

(by the way, that RINO likely has ‘made’ enough money in politics to have private, armed, security)

Yep - they call them trigger mechanisms in Glocks “auto sears” but the idiotic law would also ban classics like original 1911’s and many others manufactured pre-1968. 90% of my collection would become illegal in Connecticut...

I believe that the CSP carries Dig Sauer weapons but were/are looking at changing to Glock 9mm weapons

Are there a lot of “gang-bangers” in Connecticut?
