Are high-capacity magazines allowed in Connecticut?

Yes, without restrictions
No, they are banned entirely
Yes, but only for handguns
Yes, but limited to 10 rounds

The correct answer is: Yes, but limited to 10 rounds

High-capacity magazines, which are defined as magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, are not allowed in Connecticut without restrictions. The only time they can be legally used is if they are registered as an antique. Possessing an unregistered high-capacity magazine is considered a class D felony, which can result in imprisonment and fines. This means that options A and B are incorrect. Option C is also incorrect because while high-capacity magazines may be allowed for certain handguns, they are still restricted to a maximum of 10 rounds per magazine.
