This video from Guns & Gadgets details Connecticut's Governor's Bill 5043, which proposes a 'metaphysical' approach to gun control by redefining 'convertible pistols' as machine guns. The bill targets semi-automatic pistols with a cruciform trigger bar, like many Glocks, if they can be hypothetically converted to full-auto with common household tools. This legislation aims to ban the manufacture and sale of such firearms within Connecticut, potentially impacting a significant portion of the handgun market and facing constitutional challenges based on historical tradition and existing federal laws.

This intervention by the DOJ signals a federal stance against state-level bans on commonly owned firearms, citing Supreme Court precedents like Heller and Bruen.
