All the stores should have them and most online sellers will ship to a CT FFL.

Really no need to overthink it.

Ive bought my last couple lowers from brownells and had shipped to my ffl no problems... pretty sure primary arms has no issue shipping lowers to a ffl here in ct....

Or call around your local gun shops and ask if they have any in stock and price and what kind....
Factor in if you buy online shipping costs and whatever your ffl is going to charge you to do the transfer...

I can't see bans at national level, and CT already has a ban and lowers are still available.  But, I can see this state's legislature come back next year to close the Other & pre-ban "loophole".

Edit: "loophole" in quotes as it's not a true loophole.

Please don't use the term loophole. It makes it seem like we're doing something surreptitiously.
There's no ambiguity here. The law literally states pre-bans are exempt and there's a set of requirements a firearm using an AR lower must meet to be illegal.
Leave the denigrating terms for the grabbers.

Fair.  I edited my original comment and added explanation.

A friend of mine just picked up a couple lowers from The Gun Store in Waterbury. They were a bit over $100 if I remember right.

Hoffman's has their brand for under $100 if you don't mind dealing with them.

I hope you're not buying from shops that charge a transfer fee (at any cost) for something you buy in-store.

FYI: Alpha Dog, in Southbury, in still only a $20 transfer (no in-house products).

In-state? No clue (I hope no one).
However, I've read plenty of posts, here, where people thought it was normal for a dealer to charge a transfer fee on in-house items

Valley Firearms used to do it with their Gunbroker items before the owner died/ business closed. It didn't bother me much since I knew what I was willing to pay for the gun. I just bid less than I would have if they weren't playing those kind of games.

Yeah, made the mistake of using my local FFl for a transfer, $50.00 + tax.
Great way to motivate me to go elsewhere.

If they have it in stock and your transferring the same gun in I wood feel kind of weird.

I actually got my sig legion cheaper than the internet locally
