ct trying to ban gun magazines that hold more then 10 rounds

"A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
Lots of politicians and sheep citizenry have forgotten the above in red. There is no room for "interpretation" of that.

This is a major point of difference between citizens of the U.S. and many other countries around the world, and it shows up in many areas of society not just gun laws. There is a serious movement in society here toward libertarianism. We really feel that government should be as limited as possible and that the more freedoms that the individual retains the better. Government in our country is seen as a failure. It has been bought and paid for by various interest depending on the party and is no longer trusted to effectively represent the will of the people.
Do you honestly think that whomever is sponsoring this bill is responding to the overwhelming outcry from the good citizens of CT for a hi-cap mag ban? I highly doubt it, and local and national polling on the topic tends to support me. I would bet a lot of money that this bill was written by a lobbyist, and is being sponsored by politicians that can directly trace political contributions to anti-gun policy interest groups.
Buying our government is a multi-billion dollar business in this country. THAT is why we get upset, THAT is why "the good of the people" is no longer a valid reason to remove, curtail, limit, restrict, apply "common sense" to or any other euphemism they try to use for taking my natural rights.
I live in NY we have had a 10 round limit since 94, I also have a CCW permit and I use it, I am also an NRA Instructor. Anyone, with a little practice can swap mags in a semi-auto pistol in under a second. It's part of many malfunction and point shooting drills that a responsible ccw'er should practice to achieve basic competency with a firearm.
So what problem does this law solve? What problems do any of our myriad guns laws solve?
thats what i wanna know what are they gonna acomplish besides taking away our right by passing this. it just pisses me off on how corrupt and money hungry our goverment is. too bad we couldnt start over and rebuild our goverment in a way that serves the PEOPLE not the goverment part of the problem is the amount of people who don't vote too the last eceltion in ct was one of the worst suposivly and yet everyone is complaining about goverment well get off your ass and vote for whats right for us .
The whole "why" thingy with our resistance to firearm restrictions and bans needs to be understood by the politicians. Or perhaps it is too well understood?
I have sporting/hunting firearms, and I have "civil defense" firearms. Too many people make the assumption that the sporting arms are the issue with firearm control. It's the exact opposite. I'll give up hunting way before I'll give up the right to bear arms.
If there comes a time when a group in this country wants to enforce tyranny on us, it is our duty as Americans to raise a militia and fight for the Constitution. It's un-American to ignore your duty to assist a defense force in case of such a situation.
A citizen's militia overthrew the official Government and Military (the British) to provide us with a Constitution, and that time might come again. You never know. Just in case, I keep certain firearms that are intended to be used for a Citizen's Army to stop oppression. They are not bolt-action .22's, they are effective military arms.
Perhaps this is why some politicians feel the need to limit firearms. Because they are fine with tyranny as long as they are on the tyrant's side?

OPPS!! That was a bit too political. 
I try to avoid politics on this site. But it needs to be said. Gun Control is a tool tyrants use to oppress the citizens.

well we need to do somethign for this but they would see it as terrorism or somethign to that affect just to suit there needs or situation(not the best on wording things) there has to be a better way to get things done and people to hear us and get them to listen but how im a nra member i have other gun memberships but i dont see any that many things being said or done everyone is complaining but whos doing what and do it in a legal manner

US Politicians, at least the Liberal and Democrat branded ones live in fear of an armed citizen.
They know full well what is going on in Greece, Libya, Egypt, and any other country could well spread to the US.
They know full well that organizations like the "Oath Keepers" have vowed to protect and defend the Constitution at any cost.
They know full well that they, the Liberals, cannot depend on our US Military to fire on it's own citizens, most US Military are patriots and Americans first, loyal to the people and not the politicians.
They know full well that there are millions and millions of military rifles in the hands of it's citizens who are well trained and familiar with them and that the firepower in ordinary people's hands can rival some nations standing armies !
The tide is changing, the generation of pot-smoking, anti war politicians are finding out that my generation "X" and the next generation "Y" are not so trusting of "Big Brother" and my kids have been taught well by parents like me, they cannot be brainwashed, they all know how a firearm works and how to use it, my wife and I have full carry's and we have easy access in any part of our home to enough firepower to put anyone who tries to do harm in a pine box, 6 feet under.
I don't live in fear of criminals, I don't wonder how long the Police will take to get here, I don't have to live in fear for my family they can and will defend themselves.
They live in fear of the truth !

yeah like I said mag swaps are pretty quick with a modern semi. That was some nice shooting for your first runs with a glock. Looks like with maybe an hour of practice you could have the new mag in and running before the empty mag hit the ground.
I need to find a range like that! I would spend hours running presidente's :thumb::thumb::thumb:

At least in theory, our country's founding fathers put safeguards in place to stop future politicians from infringing on our rights.
What I don't understand is why the Constitution and Bill of Rights is preferred over Charmin toilet paper by over 2:1 in a survey of politicians nationwide. You'd think it would give you a rash or something.
