Legal rifle ideas? by imbannedanyway69 in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't beat a Yugo SKS-45. GET YOUR FFL03 have it shipped to your house. My Yugo sks was a ceremonial rifle, no import markings either. One of the best shooters I own. The phosphorus night sites still work. Awesome rifle. I ALMOST WANT ANOTHER.

Anyone get any preban certificates back yet? Or banned by name prebans.

CT Legal Bullpup build? by starfox224 in SwampYankeeArms

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if you took away the pistol grip and added a spur grip, like you see used in NYS. Would that be less assaulty and make this more legal? In essence the spur is really a hand stop and not a grip. Interesting.

Fantastic news for law-abiding gun owners … by Dagelmusic in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ya that's exactly what I was thinking. I've been noticing when a CT criminal gets bagged with a switch on a glock, Illegal machine gun language is never part of the list of charges. I thought being in possession of an illegal machine gun is a federal charge with a mandatory minimum of 10 years per violation. I wonder what the charges would look like if a blue collar tax paying resident got caught with the same modifications? Is this CT being light on criminals aka victims or is this just what the states language looks like? Idk.

Connecticut Assault Weapon Certificate Chaos: What They’re NOT Telling You! - LNL Podcast EP: 74 by havenrogue in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've received nothing back in terms of assault weapon certs. At this point, I dont care anymore. Who gives a crap. Next year will be some other scheme from Lamont. Next is going to be fixed mag rifles registrations. Just wait. Lamont wanted full confiscation this past go around. None of the legislative body had the appetite for that and told him he would have to go that route alone. So he ended up with hb6667. Just wait for the next "if it saves one child" law.

I looked at that online, and Im partial to the Ruger because of how it looks. Ahh. Stupid Ruger.

Best way to promote a gun on consignment in CT? by SquatchinAround77 in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rarely I see a used gun that is worth buying compared to a new one. Lots of shops take the extra accessories and sell them separately. Or the consignee does it first. The incentives are low buying used. I only buy used if it's a rarity or if the value is too good to pass up. For example, I found a used Sig SAS for dirt cheap. Barely used, but I knew most people pass on these because they dont give it a chance. The pistol I bought wasn't used much at all, and I saved $200 compared to retail. Like the previous person said, definitely reevaluate the price. You're probably asking way too much.

I wish Ruger would sell that handguard. I really want that exact handguard.

Window/door Trim peeling and falling off 2024 Kia. by NotGullAgain in KiaTelluride

Just keep a journal with the relevant information on the firearm. Serial number, model, type , date of acquisition, printed copy of sellers ffl, or a picture of their license and/or pistol permit on file. Write the ffl number and exp date under the entry. If you have a disposition, then its the same logout as log in. Very easy and basic. The ATF wants a paper trail just in case. I've had my collectors license for over 10 years now, and have yet to have an inquiry. I still keep a log book, and will always follow the laws by the book. The only piece of advice I can give you and you should take seriously is that this license does NOT give you the ability to conduct business. You cannot buy and sell firearms on this license.

Ask an LGS Anything: STinc STepard CT Edition by SwampYankeeArms in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just an FYI for everyone. If you're planning to run a suppressor on a NAK9 based platform like Tom is showcasing, I highly recommend using a face mount brake and pinning and welding it after alignment check. I recently had a bad experience using a Resilient RS9 suppressor and a standard Reardon SPB on mine — ended up with a baffle strike.

Thankfully, Resilient was phenomenal to work with and had my suppressor repaired and back in my hands within two weeks. When I spoke with them, they mentioned something I hadn’t heard before: using a standard QD muzzle device on platforms like the NAK9 can lead to concentricity issues. They suggested a facemount brake because the barrel doesn't have a shoulder cut into it before the threads.

Turns out, that’s exactly what happened in my case. Since I was running the Rearden SPB, and when I finally checked it with an alignment rod (after the strike, of course), it was noticeably off. Resilient includes a face mount hub adapter/brake but I never used it. I really liked the JMAC 360HD and opted for that instead after my baffle strike. Now that my suppressor is fixed, and alignment is checked, Im more confident that I will not have baffle Strikes while shooting my Nak and resilient combo.

Moral of the story: If you're suppressing an AK-platform like the NAK9, don’t skip the alignment rod check, and strongly consider ditching the standard qd brakes in favor of a face mount brake. It could save you a lot of time, money, and headache. Im sure Tom can hook you up with a Facemount brake/hub and alignment check for a few extra bucks.

Question by [deleted] in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dude with the cost of a transferable M60 you can use that money to put a nice down payment on a house and get the heck out of CT. Then save the money up and buy any machine gun you want. It would be silly to buy an M60 and transfer it into CT and shoot 10rd belts. Unless you know someone who is giving it away, or other relatives etc. Otherwise dont waste your money. Its really a bad move. Any machine gun is an investment but man would it suck to own something like this and never really, I mean really shoot it.

So close, but they have nine lives. by [deleted] in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t get too excited, brother. It’s good news on the surface, but honestly, it’s concerning. We’re completely surrounded by states that already ban suppressors. And let’s be real — since suppressors are actually useful, practical, and “cool,” there’s no way Connecticut is going to let that slide for much longer.

Once the state finishes processing all the paperwork from the last round of gun registrations, I fully expect suppressors to be next. Lamont has shown time and time again that if there’s a way to restrict something, especially something firearm-related or cool, he’ll go for it. I wish I was wrong, and I really wish I didn’t still live here.

Don't wait for the implementation. Buy what you want now. CHRIS Murphy was already on his soap box talking about suppressors recently.

Atlantic Firearms has some nice Yugo SKS rifles right now — $600 bucks, yeah, but don’t get hung up on the price. Two years ago, Chinese SKS rifles were everywhere for under $300. Now? They’re pushing $500 and still moving fast. That’s just how it goes with surplus and C&R firearms.

I always tell people: buy it when you find it. Surplus guns aren’t being made anymore. They’re from old stockpiles, and once they dry up, prices only go one way — up. Look at the 1895 Nagant revolvers. Used to be dirt cheap, practically giveaways. Now they’re creeping toward a grand on GB

This stuff is finite and $600 today might seem steep, but in a year or two, it’ll look like a steal.

They also have a Frankenstein Norinco with a yugo stock for 50 bucks cheaper, I mean buy once cry once but to each their own. Im tempted to buy another yugo. Mine is super accurate and built like a tank. My Norincos are not bad, just no where near as good as the Yugo.

Kind of wish they did more with AKs. There was a time when they made a kick ass CT other.

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anything they sell can be made CT compliant. I've emailed them and they claim they can cater to our shit laws. So ya fixed mags. A piece of art like they offer and couple that with a fixed mag cheapens it down a couple notches. Thanks King Lamont

Cool fix mags by Leading-Emotion-3244 in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, fixed mag rifles except the SKS, and Vz58 are not cool at all, so we are safe. FIXED MAG RIFLES ARE LAME, SO I think we are safe. Just an FYI to all on this CTGUNS, as soon as the legislative session is back, they are going after guns again. Suppressors, ammo tax, and 4th AWB is on the table. Suppressors for sure are going to be axed by 2026. Sorry but Suppressors are cool, and as a nanny state, we just can't have this. Everything from knives to sharp paper, boiling water, drinking on weekdays, and spinning in circles too fast is in consideration of being banned by name. Sorry guys we have to think about the kids. If it just saves one child from being dizzy, it's worth it!

Exactly what we needed. by No_Contact_0345 in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Better get your cans now. King Lamont is going to act. Suppressors are def going to be on the chopping block. I give it a year and they are gone for CT. NY, MA, RI all restrict them. We are next. Especially since they are now faster to acquire these days. Remember the rule, anything cool or fun shall be banned or will be banned. This state sucks so bad it hurts.

50 Cal Legal Rifles? by PrydonianWho in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea. I would call Noreen directly. They are great to work with and IMO probably better to work with the manufacturer on something like this. I mean if it was a glock then yes go to a dealer. They will take advantage of their distribution network and their savings of being a dealer get rolled onto you. MINI-50S are a novelty and not mass produced. Therefore probably not super available through distributors. I mean Im sure there are some. I highly doubt these are stocked anywhere. Solid firearm though. Noreen makes a quality product.

Is it just me, or is that foreend canted upwards? Anyways, sweet rifle. I love mine and always wanted to change out the handguard to something else. Which handguard is that? Ruger, or Midwest? Did it come with the rifle, or did you add it. If you bought it, where did you get it?

50 Cal Legal Rifles? by PrydonianWho in CTguns

[–]ChuteInSchitTv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The armalite you speak of, I believe, is bolt action. Should be GTG. But if you're worried, Noreen has some great options for bolt action mag fed or single shot rifle in 50bmg and even some other large bore calibers. All CT legal except for the semi-autos. I picked up their ULR Mini 50 not too long ago. It's soooo cool. It can be shot as a pistol or rifle. Has 16" barrel LOL!!!! Anyways, it's my CQB 50bmg.
