The lower Southwest corner of Connecticut has the nations heaviest
gun karma of any place in America. All of Al Capone's Tommy guns used in
the St Valentines Massacre were made a few miles from Newtown, CT, at
Colt Patent Fire Arms Manufacturing Company in Hartford. The AR-15 is a
trademark of Colt Arms, the style of gun used in the shooting of the
school tots, located 49 minutes drive away in Hartford. Also, for 140
years Winchester Repeating Arms company was located until recently in
Hartford. U. S. Fire Arms Mfg. Co. is the only gun company still
manufacturing in the City of Hartford, CT
Lanza did not use a Ruger pistol, but the semi-automic handgun with
models that include 16 shot (15+1) loads compare to the Glock and Sig
Sauer that he carried. Sturm Ruger is located 26 miles south in
Southport, Ct. A little closer, still south of Newtown for 140 years was
the REMINGTON ARMS-UNION METALLIC CARTRIDGE CO. In “Gun Valley” is
Charter Arms at 16 miles southeast of Newtown. There are no direct
routes to North Haven, so it is a roundabout drive of 39 miles to get
due east to the Marlin Firearms Co, to get a rifleman-style lever action
rifle. While in North Haven you can visit the O F Mossberg & Sons
Inc for a nice shotgun. 27 miles north of Newtown is Warren, ct, home of
Wildey Guns, the Charles Bronson "Death Wish" longbarrel style of
handgun.
