Contact The Freedom Shop. They're in CT and can help you legally build what you want.Okay, I'm just getting out of the time machine -from reading this 2010 thread- Now to 2018. What's the story on AR pistols in CT? Either pre 1994 ban or new?
Mardoy - just a heads up. If you own a weekend or vacation home in that state, you ARE a resident of that state as far as the ATF is concerned when you are using that home, and can legally buy an AR pistol over the counter in that state, provided they are legal to buy in teh first place.
For example, if your place is in VT, you are good to go. If your place is in upstate NY, you are not.
If this is the case, let me know and I'll take the time to write up the details.
Good luck.
For what its worth. You don't have to actually own the place. The way one ATF inspector described it to me was that if you keep clothes and a toothbrush there, its a residence.

Most states have some kind of resident carry permit. That's all you need.Yeah but you still gotta have some kind of docs that you have some residency tie there, enough that an FFL would be convinced of that.... I wonder if some states will issue a non driver ID to
accomplish this.... obviously you have to still supply some indicator of residency, but the bar might be different.

So if you have a place in NH, even though its constitutional carry now, its worth the $10 for the reciprocity it brings as well as how it eases the purchase of guns when residing in that state.
