I was in a gun shop in CT last week. Owner mentioned that because of the new laws, he had to do a state background check on guns in for repair to make sure that the owner had filed his papers to register a gun that required it, i.e., an "assault weapon", so he could legally return it to them. Guns with a threaded barrel also fall into this category, also guns with certain other features.
I should have asked if he notified people about this before he took their gun in. If they didn't register them, they're now criminals, and the state police have now been notified. Be interested to know what will happen to the weapon. Will it be confiscated by the state, or will the owner be allowed to sell it? Under the new law, it can only be sold to an FFL, or sold out of state, not sold to another in state citizen.
Not that anyone on "The High Road" would do something illegal like not registering as required by law, but just something to think about.
