"Even if the Second Amendment did apply, it would not invalidate the statute at issue here. CL Sec. 4-203 provides that a person may not "wear, carry, or transport a handgun, whether concealed or open, on or about the person" or "in a vehicle traveling on a road or parking lot generally used by the public, highway, waterway, or airway of the state."

So, even if that means you can only keep a gun at home, it is apparently illegal to drive it from the store to your house?

My thought, too. Also, how would you practice with your home weapon at a range in order to be truly effective if the state says it’s illegal to transport it? I am finding this out first-hand as I am taking the NRA Personal Protection Class this month and having fired a weapon only once about 15 years ago. Making it illegal to transport a gun to a location where one can actually practice with the weapon effectively disarms an individual...but I guess that’s the point of these idiotic laws.

Negative. But you better have gun, ammo, separated and be on the way to a hunt or gun range.
