    (2) A part or combination of parts designed or intended to convert a firearm into an assault weapon, as defined in subdivision (1) of this subsection, or any combination of parts from which an assault weapon, as defined in subdivision (1) of this subsection, may be rapidly assembled if those parts are in the possession or under the control of the same person;

    (3) Any semiautomatic firearm not listed in subdivision (1) of this subsection that meets the following criteria:

    (A) A semiautomatic rifle that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following:

    (i) A folding or telescoping stock;

    (ii) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon;

    (iii) A bayonet mount;

    (iv) A flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and

    (v) A grenade launcher; or

    (B) A semiautomatic pistol that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following:

    (i) An ammunition magazine that attaches to the pistol outside of the pistol grip;

    (ii) A threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel extender, flash suppressor, forward handgrip or silencer;

    (iii) A shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles, the barrel and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the nontrigger hand without being burned;

    (iv) A manufactured weight of fifty ounces or more when the pistol is unloaded; and

    (v) A semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm; or

    (C) A semiautomatic shotgun that has at least two of the following:

    (i) A folding or telescoping stock;

    (ii) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon;

    (iii) A fixed magazine capacity in excess of five rounds; and

    (iv) An ability to accept a detachable magazine; or

    (4) A part or combination of parts designed or intended to convert a firearm into an assault weapon, as defined in subdivision (3) of this subsection, or any combination of parts from which an assault weapon, as defined in subdivision (3) of this subsection, may be rapidly assembled if those parts are in the possession or under the control of the same person.

    (b) As used in this section and sections 53-202b to 53-202k, inclusive, the term "assault weapon" does not include any firearm modified to render it permanently inoperable.


    Sec. 53-202m. Circumstances when assault weapons exempt from limitations on transfers and registration requirements. Notwithstanding any provision of the general statutes, sections 53-202a to 53-202l, inclusive, shall not be construed to limit the transfer or require the registration of an assault weapon as defined in subdivision (3) or (4) of subsection (a) of section 53-202a, provided such firearm was legally manufactured prior to September 13, 1994.






    The "Colt AR15" and "Colt Sporter" are banned by name in CT. This means that any Colt rifle that bears the markings of "AR15" or "Sporter" including "AR15A2" etc, is banned. It doesn't matter if it is preban or postban it is banned.

    The Colt 6920 is marked "LE Carbine," therefore it is not banned by name. But considering it was manufactured after 9.13.94 and has such features as a flash hider/threaded barrel, bayonet lug and collapsible stock it is banned because of the configuration. If you had the stock pinned, the bayonet lug removed, and a non flash hiding muzzle device perm attached the 6920 would be CT compiant and perfectly legal to own.

    The other route would be as another member stated. Get a 6920 take off the upper. Take all the guts out of the lower and put them in a preban lower then attach the upper. You would now have all the working parts of a 6920 on a preban piece of lower aluminum.

    We have CCW, we have almost all NFA (machineguns have to be modified to be either safe or auto - no select fire), we can carry concealed in bars, resteraunts, etc. There are loopholes in the AWB.

    If everyone who lives in a state like CT moves to a "free state" instead of staying and trying to fight for our rights eventually those who want to take our rights will follow until there are no more "free states." If you choose to run that is your decision. I think I'll stick around a while longer and see if we can make a dent.

    To turn this thread back on topic... I have a Colt MT6400C I just got in trade I'll sell it to you instead of de-nutering it if ya want. It is the exact same gun as the 6920, just with no bayo lug, a fixed stock and a pinned muzzle brake instead of a threaded barrel with a flash hider. PM me...

    Whining in a forum that people have seen your thread, but not replied, reeks of an odd brand of desperation. - Me

    Titling your thread "To XYZ or Not to XYZ" will cause me to completely ignore your thread.

    Since I am in the job market right now, I am looking to live in a free state (or I could just stay where I am - which is perfectly fine - if it ends up that way).

    You'd better believe I am being very selective about what states I will live in.

    Trust me on this one: Living in a free state is well worth every penny. Join us!
