MORE GUN CONTROL FROM CONNECTICUT

By Bob Walsh


Banning assault rifles 

Connecticut has not enacted any new gun laws since the Sandy Hook shooting ten years ago.  They have just, however, made up for it.

Assuming the new laws survive court challenges which were filed immediately on their passage, open carry is now banned in the state and, with some exceptions, you can not buy more than three handguns in any 30 day period.  

On the good side the state is upping bail and tightening other controls on repeat gun crime offenders.  

On the not good side the restrictions on "assault weapons" have been expanded and the penalties for having evil high capacity magazines are stiffened up.
