Connecticut

Come on Nutmeggers, show your stuff. At one time Connecticut was the Arsenal of the World. Now there are only a handful of manufacturers. Lets see there is COLT, Mossberg, Ruger, Marlin, CharterFirearms, Hartford Arms, Seecamp, AR-7 Industries, and STAG Arms. Any other?

Pretty soon Connecticut will require a license to own a sharp stick. I'm glad I escaped to Vermont.

I am so glad that you can still transfer long guns w/o paperwork!

Maybe if we didn't have the highest taxes in the country we could keep all of the gun makers here. oops there goes another one bye bye Winchester

Wow, that's a beautiful K75, I love the RT fairing set up. I ride a 2003 VTX retro and I also own an old 1978 Kawasaki KZ650 C2 . I came very close to buying a sport tour bike a few years back but my wife likes big cruisers to ride on. I'm still thinking about picking up an older connie or a K75 for solo rining. I've owned all sorts of bikes over the years.

Rockville, Ashford, or Andover Sportsman's clubs and the Fin Fur and Feather in Chaplin, i believe they all require memberships though. If the Fox and Coon is still in Coventry at one point i was aware of someone shooting there from out of state as a visitor but idk how he worked that out
