CCDL: Support HB7052 - An Act Concerning Large Capacity Magazines and Ammunition Sales​

Connecticut gun owners, here’s your chance to support a pro-gun bill! HB7052 raises the magazine capacity limit from 10 to 15 rounds and allows ranges and gun clubs to sell ammo for on-site use. Proposed by Rep. Mark Anderson, this bill is a step toward protecting our freedoms.

Why it matters:

• Magazine limits endanger law-abiding gun owners while criminals ignore them.
• Data shows legal gun owners aren’t the problem—more arrests happen for illegal, undeclared magazines in one year than for declared ones over the last decade.
• Since 2016, less than 8% of illegal magazine charges lead to convictions.
• Magazine bans lack historical basis and clash with the Bruen decision.
• Pre-SB1160 gun owners and new residents deserve the right to train with their firearms without extra fees.

Join the Connecticut Citizens Defense League in supporting HB7052 at the Public Safety and Security Committee hearing on Thursday, February 27 at 11:00 AM in Room 2B of the LOB (or via Zoom). Sign up to speak by 3:00 PM on Wednesday, February 26, or submit written testimony before the hearing.
