Connecticut's new gun control law, a response to the December massacre in Newtown that the governor signed into law Thursday, is among the strongest in the country. Here is a look at how its measures compare to laws passed this year in Colorado and New York:
___
AMMUNITION MAGAZINES
Connecticut bans the sale or purchase of ammunition magazines holding more than 10 rounds. The law allows people to keep high-capacity magazines they already own if they're registered with the state by Jan. 1 but limits their use to the home and a shooting range.
New York restricted ammunition magazines to seven bullets and gave current owners of higher-capacity magazines a year to sell them out of state. Colorado banned ammunition magazines that hold more than 15 rounds.
___
ASSAULT WEAPONS BANS
Connecticut expanded its assault weapons ban, adding more than 100 firearms and requiring that a weapon have only one of several features in order to be banned.
New York also expanded its assault weapons ban. Colorado did not pass an assault weapons ban.
___
BACKGROUND CHECKS
Connecticut requires universal criminal background checks for the sale of all guns, a measure that took effect immediately to close a loophole in private sales of rifles and shotguns. Background checks are also required to buy ammunition and magazines.
Colorado expanded background checks to private and online gun sales but did not require them to buy ammunition. New York expanded background checks to private gun sales and became the first state to require background checks to buy bullets.
___
DANGEROUS WEAPON OFFENDER REGISTRY
Connecticut created what officials called the first statewide dangerous weapon offender registry in the nation. Individuals who have been convicted of any of 40 weapons offenses must register with the state for five years after their release.
___
MENTAL ILLNESS
People involuntarily committed by court order to a hospital for psychiatric disabilities within five years are not eligible for a gun permit, up from one year under previous Connecticut law.
New York required mental health professionals to tell state authorities if a patient threatens to use a gun illegally.
___
FIREARMS STORAGE
Connecticut expanded the legal duty to securely store a firearm to cover situations where a resident of the premises poses a risk of personal injury to themselves or others.
New York requires locked storage of guns if you live with someone prohibited from them because of a crime, commitment to a mental institution or court protection order and made the unsafe storage of assault weapons a misdemeanor.

CT never was on my short list of states that I'd consider relocating to but there is no chance of me breaking ground there now...
So CT banned Glocks and Beretta 92's?
G18 and Beretta 93.Quote:
v. a semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm.
New England in general is just miserable for most everything. The mid-Atlantic, other than PA is getting there.
That is scary! I understand the G18 to be an automatic version of the G17 so that may be safe. They will find a way to remedy that. :(Quote:
