The State of Connecticut has been advised by the ATF-NFA that because CT has not changed the definitions of “assault weapon” or “rifle”, Form 1 applications coming from CT, for “CT Others”, will be processed without the need for further documentation from the Special Licensing and Firearms Unit. Just a reminder, the issuance of a tax stamp for what is federally defined as a Short Barrel Rifle, does not allow the holder to modify that firearm from a “CT Other” to what is defined as an assault weapon in Connecticut.
