Or so-far-gun-friendly Virginia...CT, sorry for your collective loss and the stupidity of your leaders. Throw them out next election.

Yes, we need more good folks to move into VA and make sure we stay that way.

BTW, we passed gun legislation recently too.


VA decided punishing people that break laws would be more useful. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Isn't it great, you can go from a law abiding, tax paying citizen to a felon with the stroke of a pen.

On Fox News this morning a 15 year old girl from CT that is active at her gun club and shoots competitively said that with the new law if she took her guns out of state for a competition she could not bring them back in.

This is getting serious!

Tell me about it I haven't been sleeping well since I found out about this Bill. No more AR15, M1A, M1 Garand basically any rifle that is semi-auto. I went to our LGS and it was so empty, not because they don't have anything to sell, because they couldn't sell half of their stuff due it them being "illegal" to sell.

Vote the bums out!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" />

This! Get a list of everyone who voted for it, and make sure they get kicked out next time.

M1, M1 Carbine too? Guy next door and I were just talking about them and thought they didn't make the list! Ruger mini 14 isn't on list- unless it has pistol grip I believe...'cause it's extra dangerous with the different grip and stock! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I guess Ruger will be selling a bunch of Mini-14s in CT if they are still legal. Good weapon. I accumulated a bunch of high capacity magazines for mine over the years. I even found some real Ruger 20 rd mags. While not quite as accurate as some AR-15s, for close range protection, they will do the job.

I'm a bit confused with the new Bill. Most magazine feed semi autos are banned (if you own it now you get to keep it if you register it by the end of the year, but you can't buy anymore )even if they did not make the list (ban by feature not by name). If it can take detachable magazines and it has a pistol grip then it's a definite no no. the M1 garand might be ok since it doesn't take in a "magazine". The "clip" with the M1 doesn't count??

I think they might have overlooked something too. before this new bill, 6 position stocks were not legal. It looks after you register it you can have as many "evil" features as you want (New bill is taking over the old AWB). I'm not sure how true this is since I'm no lawyer but I read the new bill twice and it does look pretty promising...

I'm going to build a bolt gun for the time being. Hopefully we will win in court and repel this thing all together.

what a joke.

Very sad not much of a joke
