As every resident of CT knows, if you own magazies with a capacity of more than 10 rounds, you must REGISTER them before Jan 1, 2014. That's in about 3 weeks. For some strange reason, I haven't heard anything about this important information from any source, including the media. I just have to wonder if this is a way to make us all felons?
Something that continues to bug me (in addition to the stupidity and illegal nature of this) is it is a form of back door gun registration. Think about it, you are registering magazines for (theoretically) guns you own that use "hi-cap" magazines. If I register my magazines for my Browning Hi Power and CZ 75, I am telling the government that I "probably" own these handguns. Am I being paranoid about this or is it just me being silly to wonder? I used to sell at gun shows and I sold a bunch of "hi-cap" magazines at a loss to not have to register them. If they thought I owned guns for all those magazines, I would have been put on a watchlist of some kind! :banghead:
Before I get the lectures, I am already looking to move to VT, NH or probably PA in the near future and this is reason #1, among others. I can't state enough how much these laws really rub me wrong.
So, here's the link to the official site which includes the form you need to submit. Do it now and make sure they have it in their grubby little hands before Jan 1, 2014 or they may just say you are late and too bad. This link also provides the forms for registering your evil assault weapons as well as the permits to buy ammo (gag) if you don't have a pistol permit and the permits needed to buy a handgun for home defense or a long gun if you don't have a pistol permit. (This really blows). So, get them registered ASAP!
