Blue State Becomes Third To Ban The Honda Civic Of Pistols

Democratic Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont signed legislation that bans Glock pistols Wednesday, making the state the third to prohibit future sales of the ubiquitous pistol.

Lamont signed the legislation into law Wednesday, according to the Connecticut General Assembly’s website. Top leaders from National Rifle Association and Second Amendment Foundation condemned Lamont’s approval of the measure, saying he was attacking law-abiding gun owners with the measure.

“Machine guns are illegal in every state, including Connecticut. But they are still showing up on our streets, thanks to DIY machine gun pistols that can easily be converted into fully automatic weapons using a Lego-sized switch,” Lamont claimed in a March release.

“Connecticut’s ridiculous Glock-style pistol ban is nothing less than a direct attack on the most commonly owned, lawfully carried handguns in America,” NRA-ILA Executive Director John Commerford said in a release. “Throughout the country, progressive politicians are launching a coordinated national assault on our Second Amendment rights. They aren’t targeting criminals; they’re criminalizing law-abiding citizens by banning the very firearms millions of Americans depend on every day for self-defense.”

The NRA and SAF sued Maryland within hours of Democratic Maryland Gov. Wes Moore signing a “Glock ban” into law Tuesday. Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a similar ban in October 2025.
