I'm also going to second what b33r engineer said, could be any combo of those. We may or may not see if and when he is caught, though by that time the guns and mags in question might have taken a swim or a dumpster dive.

Reply to If someone in ct won a big amount on lottery, after they claim it and taxes are taken out at the lottery office, when tax time comes are you responsible to pay any more taxes on that winning? by Independent-Reach339
Lotto winnings count as income, you pay regular income tax on them. In most states your take home is about 2/3rds of the jackpot.

There's no community so nobody has respect for others anymore. It doesn't even cross their minds that they could be inconveniencing or bothering others

Just updated on the police blotter at 7:50 PM - male from White Birch Circle in Somers apparently didn't want to go to rehab, fired 11 rounds in the backyard in Somers, and has now been firing at family members' houses, last known location is Holyoke, Mass.

Depends on the gun and magazine. You can get 33 rounders for 9mm Glocks, for example, and a standard capacity magazine for an AR-15 is 30 rounds. Magazines with more than a 10 round capacity are illegal in Connecticut unless you owned them prior to 2013 and registered them with the state, though, and you can’t carry them loaded with more than 10 rounds even if you do legally own them. So either multiple guns, multiple magazines, or illegal magazines.

Always been a fan of Phoenix Ink in Southington. Originally Jay, the owner, but the other folks he has in there are also very good.

Depends how many guns and if he was following the law or not. Considering he was firing shots illegally, well, you can probably guess his opinion on the law.
The "how many guns" part may sound stupid but there is such an idea as the "New York reload" which is firing one gun until empty and then just pulling out a second gun and firing that until empty rather than reloading. Cops used to do that with revolvers sometimes.

Definitely go there for a burger or clam dish if you like seafood. I don’t know what they do different there but it’s just really great food.

20 rounds? Not a gun guy but isn’t that more than 2 mags?
