Has anyone ever flown out of the Hartford/Bradley airport with an AK or AR? What were your experiences? Any problems or hassles? I've only flow out of there with handguns. Thanks in advance.
An SKS converted to use AK mags in 7.62 gives you the same capacity/firepower as an AK-47 and it's perfectly legal.
distra said:If you read the AWB for CT you will find there are certain criteria for an SKS to be legal in CT (or other so called "assault weapons"). Detachable mag is not legal on an SKS if you have bayounet lug, pistol grip forgrip, flash suppressor, etc.
distra said:If you have a detachable mag (1), bayonet lug (2), and flash suppressor (3) which most "bone stock" SKS's have you are over the "AT LEAST TWO FEATURE" limit. Don't forget 2 features "ARE AT LEAST TWO".
The officer I spoke with said that's a no-no on an SKS unless you remove the suppressor or the bayonet lug.
It's your call 'cause mine is 922r and CT compliant.

why would you call a leo about this issue, he is not a lawyer and hence is in no position to give legal advice on such matters, he will tell what he thinks is the law or just his opinion on the matter. If you really want to know the law pertaining to your specific weapon then you should talk to your da or a lawyer not leoI called the CT State Police when I purchased my SKS because I wanted a detachable mag.
