So I'm getting ready to PCS to Connecticut for two years. I was looking online for a .22 rifle for my daughter, I wanted the S&W .22 that looks like an AR so when we go to the range we can have similar weapons. I saw a review of the .22 that said it was illegal in CT. WTF, a .22 rifle illegal? I did some more checking and came across an article that said CT has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country. Nice. ![Roll Eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png)

My read of CT's gun laws is that I can't even bring my AR ("post-ban" Colt AR-15 match target without the evil threaded barrel, bayonet stud, or collapsible stock) into the state, much less shoot it. Can anyone tell me if that's correct? I'm hoping I just misread the law, I had planned on building my own AR from parts while I'm up at school, looks like that's out the window too.![Mad :mad: :mad:](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f621.png)
Second, what kind of gun would you folks recommend that I buy that I can 1) be compliant with CT law and 2) still have a "black rifle" type feel?
