I was wondering if anyone knew where the Sandy Hook shooter's mother bought the rifle and the 30-round magazines that were used in the shooting. Connecticut has very strict gun control laws that ban a very wide variety of rifles and magazines that hold more than 10 rounds.

I doubt you're asking out of inquiry for your own endeavors, given your username, so I don't feel as awkward answering such a strange question. For starters, Connecticut enacted the "very strict gun control laws" in response to the shooting, so the 30-round PMAGS weren't an ordeal. Regarding your question as to where Nancy Lanza bought the guns: Well, your question is answered in 00159702.pdf of the DESPP Book 2 Batch 1, which is the full weapon report! Unfortunately...every page is fully redacted save for the descriptors of the receipts (which are only partly redacted). Here you go: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] If you're wondering why the FFL holders which sold the guns are redacted, take that up with the ATF.

So the Bushmaster rifle was bought in 2011? The digital clock for the camera that he took the "selfie" of him posing must be wrong then because it says 2010. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

It appears as though this was a mistake. Here it is in the weapon report in 0025942.pdf from DESPP Book 8 Batch 1: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
