It’s confidential for safety reasons. I believe there is a “red flag law” in CT though and if you have reason to believe someone may have a weapon and is a reasonable danger to others there’s nothing stopping you from reporting it.

It’s not always straightforward. I don’t think there is a federal law against a state registry. But I think there is about the privacy of it. It’s been a long time since I looked at it. And there was an absolute meltdown over talk of the federal gov establishing a database, one stop shop owners thought would be easily abused. They don’t think it’s the government’s business they happen to own 47 guns, etc

Your thinking of the Supremacy Clause?
