On Wednesday, a judge in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut issued a preliminary injunction blocking the implementation of Connecticut’s Glock ban. Breitbart News reported that Gov. Ned Lamont (D-CT) signed the ban on Glock and Glock-clone handguns in May, referencing the gun’s “cruciform trigger bar” and using the typical leftist language “convertible pistols” and/or “machinegun-convertible pistols.” On September 22, 2026, Breitbart News noted that Glock was suing Connecticut over the ban and that the National Shooting Sports Foundation was suing as well.
On September 29, 2026, Judge Kari A. Dooley ruled against the ban, citing its failure to survive Bruen’s (2022) two-pronged test and noting, “The statute is presumptively unconstitutional, and Defendants have not met their burden of demonstrating that the statute is consistent with our nation’s history of firearms regulation.”
