Veteran Owned and Operated
Since 2012
Central Connecticut Arms, LLC was founded by Rob Pizzi Jr. in 2012. A Connecticut native with a background as an infantryman and armorer in the U.S. Army and a lifelong interest in hunting, nature, and shooting sports, Rob began selling firearms as a way to share his passion and knowledge with his local community. What started as a small business run out of Pizzi Jr.’s home has since grown into the go-to shop for firearms in the tri-state area.
