Anyone hear any further info on how the revised 53-202m is being interpreted (LGS, BMG, Hoffman's, DPS, etc) with regards to pre-94 bans? BTW, those that say to just go ahead and register to be safe...that is perilous at this point...the downfall to this is that if you do, you are tacitly agreeing that not only that they must be registered, but that you will not be able to transfer it within the state. I do not think the pre-94' issue should be given in to so easily...as stated previously, they would have had an issue with not allowing that exception to continue.

I'd love clarification on this; interpreting the law as written, although possessing aw features, it's not an aw as long as its a legit "preban". A new class for CT...like class 2.5...like mgs

If you look at the ct laws they've been recently updated. According to Veronica Rose chief analyst, she wrote in an OLR research report:
Select Pre-1994 Rifles By law, assault weapons not listed by name but defined by feature under the law prior to the passage of PA 13-3 are exempt from the assault weapons transfer and registration requirements if they were legally manufactured before September 13, 1994 (CGS § 53-202m). PA 13-3 retained the exemption but eliminated the referenced provisions describing the features. Thus, the status of these pre-1994 weapons is unclear. Now it's been updated and moved to the the connecticut public acts section along with the brand new laws and ammendments http://www.cga.ct.gov/2013/rpt/2013-R-0247.htm She writes: § 11 — EXCEPTIONS FOR CERTAIN PRE-1994 RIFLES The bill specifically retains an exemption for certain pre-1994 rifles defined by feature, thereby eliminating an ambiguity in PA 13-3. Prior to the passage of PA 13-3, certain semiautomatic rifles not listed by name but defined by features were exempt from the assault weapons transfer and registration requirements if they were legally manufactured before September 13, 1994 (CGS § 53-202m). PA 13-3 retained the exemption but eliminated the referenced provisions in the law describing the features. Thus, the status of these pre-1994 weapons under PA 13-3 is unclear. The bill specifically retains the exemption for these rifles. From my understanding, where this is section is placed with the new laws, she states it outright as it is. This is my first post, I hope it's informative . |

So it would have to be Pre-94 and not banned by name under the new and old list?

Are you saying with this information we can transfer Pre-94's? If we can transfer them... then we can acquire them too

Sooooo...let's say somebody owns a Bushmaster pre-ban that was manufactured in 1993. Even after the 4/4 law was passed it doesn't have to be registered?

They conveniently left out WWW and XXX but named "Colt Match Target Rifles" while leaving out YYY and ZZZ that we all know DPS previously said were gtg. It appears they tried to ban any semi-auto rifles that took detachable mags and were chambered in .223/5.56, 7.62x39, .308, .50 BMG. There are a ton of oddball things left out there even though many of them are pre-import ban ('88?) and only have +10rnd mags available. It's almost worth setting up an 07/02, receiving them in, making the mags compliant at 10rnds, and then selling to John Q Public. Non-named pre-bans |

YYYYYY and XXX doesn't verify S/N's as to status of prebans anymore? I would imagine that proof would be required, and the argument with leo at time of arrest, ect. Lucky I have a YYY letter that states one of mine is indeed preban Edit to remove data |

Right, so if you legally own a '94 preban that was exempt from registration you don't have to register it under the 4/4 law. They are also still transferable. Bring 'em on! |

It would have to be not banned by name or type under the new or old list, the referenced section is the same they added names to it.
Notwithstanding any provision of the general statutes, sections 53-202a to 53-202l. |

If it was an AW under the new law I'd either have to register it or remove the flash hider (if that's what it really was). Now I don't. I also can mod away on my 80's vintage Remi 1100 since it too would have been classified as an assault weapon with a pistol grip stock and extended tube magazine holding more than five rounds under the post 4/4/13 laws. The fracked up post 4/4/13 and 6/18/13 laws now apply two different sets of feature standards to semiautomatic shotguns. |

Thats why I was asking " whats left", because if we combine both lists, we don't have much left as the new list includes "clones and copies" if I am reading it right. |

Sec. 53-202a. Assault weapons: Definition. (a) As used in this section and sections 53-202b to 53-202k, inclusive, “assault weapon” means:

(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. Post edited. |

telc, further if one looks at "subdivision 2" of the new law it is NOT the banned by name firearms rather its this: (2) "Assault weapon" does not include (A) any firearm modified to render it permanently inoperable, or (B) a part or any combination of parts of an assault weapon, that are not assembled as an assault weapon, when in the possession of a licensed gun dealer, as defined in subsection (d) of section 53-202f, as amended by this act, or a gunsmith who is in the licensed gun dealer's employ, for the purposes of servicing or repairing lawfully possessed assault weapons under sections 53-202a to 53-202k, inclusive, as amended by this act;
Further, under the new law the banned by name list (both old and new) are renumbered/lettered so they are under; (1)(A)(i), (1)(B), (1)(C) and (1)(D). Post edited |

If you look at the ct laws they've been recently updated. According to Veronica Rose chief analyst, she wrote in an OLR research report: Select Pre-1994 Rifles By law, assault weapons not listed by name but defined by feature under the law prior to the passage of PA 13-3 are exempt from the assault weapons transfer and registration requirements if they were legally manufactured before September 13, 1994 (CGS § 53-202m). PA 13-3 retained the exemption but eliminated the referenced provisions describing the features. Thus, the status of these pre-1994 weapons is unclear. Now it's been updated and moved to the the connecticut public acts section along with the brand new laws and ammendments http://www.cga.ct.gov/2013/rpt/2013-R-0247.htm She writes: § 11 — EXCEPTIONS FOR CERTAIN PRE-1994 RIFLES The bill specifically retains an exemption for certain pre-1994 rifles defined by feature, thereby eliminating an ambiguity in PA 13-3. Prior to the passage of PA 13-3, certain semiautomatic rifles not listed by name but defined by features were exempt from the assault weapons transfer and registration requirements if they were legally manufactured before September 13, 1994 (CGS § 53-202m). PA 13-3 retained the exemption but eliminated the referenced provisions in the law describing the features. Thus, the status of these pre-1994 weapons under PA 13-3 is unclear. The bill specifically retains the exemption for these rifles. From my understanding, where this is section is placed with the new laws, she states it outright as it is. This is my first post, I hope it's informative . Just so that we're all on the same page, the exemption is for pre-94 assault weapon RIFLES, correct? If we have a pre-94 assault weapon PISTOL (in my case, a West German made P226 with a threaded barrel) it still needs to be registered? |

What does that leave us? AR's are banned by "copies and clones" so I am assuming we are fucked there. Norincos in .223? Where it leaves us is where we've been saying all a long. Anything manufactured prior to September 13, 1994 and which was not banned by name under the pre-4/4/13 law can be transferred and does not need to be registered as an assault weapon. Wait wait wait, so you could still transfer a pre-94 Olympic Arms AR15 or Bushmaster XM-15 even though they are now banned by name? What a cluster$(%* and I'm loving it.

how about a preban lower from a manufacturer that is not banned by name.
*with a piston 556 upper *with a 300BLK upper (or any non223/556 caliber) if feel like this would not fall into the copies category (piston = dif BCG /// dif caliber = dif bbl and sometimes dif mags and BCG) and you are not banned by name and you are pre-94 im also very interested in an aidscannon built on a lower that takes 9mm glock mags those lowers are not banned by name and are not copies CTHTF MOD, DanTSX - please let me know if i should scrub this info. |

If we have a pre-94 assault weapon PISTOL (in my case, a West German made P226 with a threaded barrel) it still needs to be registered? it applies to any semi-auto firearm. section (3) states any semi auto rifle (3a), and semi-auto pistol (3b), and any semi-auto shotgun (3c). see below: (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. |

My preban bushmaster m4gry for your transferable colt m16, I'll cover transfers to and from This may actually become truth though if the "laws" hold up: My MINT, UNFIRED bushmaster preban with a serial in the low 20,xxx, with all the goodies; for your M11/9, I'll cover both sides of transfer; mark my words |

'13er, I know about prebans.. We all do. But my interpretation is that a bushy (example) preban can't transfer because it's banned by name. And a preban not banned by name with a regular upper would fall into the copies category, which are now banned. Can you expand on the point you are trying to make?
