I would bury the mags and tell the compliance people that I threw them in the river to keep them from crooked cops.

It seems like there is more interest in Doc's non-vacation and whether TAK is "real" than there is in this threat. Make no mistake, this one state threat is a threat to all gun owners, just like Connecticut threatening one citizen of their state is a threat to all their citizens. This is real-time. Threads involving real problems, that require real solutions are difficult to become involved in because for every logical response, there are 10 people that want to cry "WOLVERINES!" and do an imaginary charge to the capitol. Even though they don't even know WTF the capitol of CT is. Travis

Can someone answer me this:
Since the letters seem to be targeted towards specific people, with either restricted rifles or high cap magazines, HOW did the CSP get the list of whom to send letters to?
What list were they already on? That letter showed around the web came about because some idiot tried to register their gun after the deadline.

What list were they already on? When you buy a firearm in CT you fill out a form DPS-3. That form is collected by the state they get one copy and the town you live in gets one. CT state police run the background checks using the FBI data base. So they know what you own. So far nobody I know has received a letter yet. According to a few friends that are state troopers, the state is trying to get their ducks in-line before they make any moves. I don't see it coming to anything more then them barking. They know that at least 30% of troopers are pro-gun. They also know that close to 90% of special units troopers are pro-gun. They also know they can't look to town police because their numbers for most towns are much higher being pro-gun. That would leave the National Guard left to try to enforce confiscation. Highly unlikely and would open a can of worms never before seen.

The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

In 31 years of cop work, the only "order" I have ever received, other than what time I would be working and my days off days off were was, "Handle it, handle it, handle it.".

I.e., can they be so clueless and arrogant that they go full speed ahead no matter what?

One thing that people often forget is that you don't have to know anything to be elected.

Come on, anyone with any sense at all knows that nothing at all will come of this.
The state will issue letters with a mandatory response date. Some people will comply and the State will have their arms. Those that do not are going onto a list and whenever they are stopped for any reason (DUI check, speeding, etc.), an outstanding warrant for arrest will show up in the system. They will be arrested and later tried on the outstanding charges. The homes and businesses will then be searched under a warrant pursuant to arrest and anything found then/there will be confiscated, possibly resulting in additional charges.
There will be no stand-off, no door-to-door confiscation, and no grand show down. The subjects of CT will, one-by-one, fall to the State over time and the rest will do nothing about it.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

On that note, does the State require that firearms be kept at a certain location?

Right...you can't search for anything without probable cause to believe it's there.

I used to think the same thing about LEO and our Military members (and I really hope you're right) but my mind keeps going back to this. With the changes I've seen in this country (especially the north east) the last ten or so years nothing would surprise me. ![[Linked Image]](http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/12/43191951847867818963814.jpg)
