Connecticut Becomes Third To Ban Glock Pistol
Connecticut has become the third state to ban the sale of Glock pistols after Governor Ned Lamont signed the legislation into law. The move has drawn criticism from gun rights advocates, who argue it targets law-abiding citizens rather than addressing criminal activity. Supporters of the ban cite concerns over the potential for Glock pistols to be converted into machine guns using illegal modifications.
- ▪Connecticut's ban on Glock pistols follows similar legislation in Maryland and California.
- ▪The National Rifle Association and Second Amendment Foundation have condemned the ban as an attack on Second Amendment rights.
- ▪Supporters of the ban argue that Glock pistols can be illegally modified to function as machine guns.
