Post glock ban questions

Hi, I have a few questions about CT law in preperation for after the glock ban.

Will it be legal to buy replacement parts like a recoil spring, barrel, grip or slide after October 1st? My gun is a ruger RXM and the serialized part is the lower receiver so from my understanding just that part is the "gun", legally. I was told I should replace the springs after around 8k bullets. Im at around 500 now after about 2 months so ill hit that number in about a yearish.
How will the law affect me buying attachments or accessories and using them (lights, scopes, rubber grips that slide on, etc.
What would happen if I (god forbid) need to use it in self defense and it is held by the police while the situation is investigated? Will it be returned like any other firearm or would it be different because it'll be classified as an assault weapon?
How would it work if i wanted to sell it (in person, not online) in another state like texas after the ban if glocks and glock clones get super pricy as collector items since production is stopping for a lot of them.

NOT ADVERTISING A SALE ON THIS PLATFORM

Do you think glocks will get more expensive as we get to October as production is stopping and people get FOMO or cheaper as businesses get FOMO and want to sell more?
I have dogs and i want to get a second glock/Ruger for home defense and need a suppressor because I have 5 dogs and a brother and I dont want them to go deaf if I have to protect us but the law sucks. How does it work if I want a threaded barrel on my gun? Idk how pinning or that works.

Go to r/CTguns. They have discussed this multiple times

Firstly, you'll get better answers to this on r/CTguns.

Parts that aren't the "firearm" will be legal. This isn't likely to be the regulation that decides if a given parts company suspends all sales to CT unless they primarily deal in glock clones.
It won't.
It's not reclassifying them as assault weapons. You'll get it back the same as you would any weapon being investigated for use in a crime. i.e. don't hold your breath.
Old Glocks will never be that valuable. As the legislation currently reads, you would be able to sell your pre-ban Glock the same ad before. Only postils manufactured after October 1st, 2026 would be affected. Also what you're suggesting would be a felony, unless you moved to Texas.
See 4. They might retail closer to MSRP.
Threaded barrels on handguns are prohibited and you missed the boat on a grandfathered pre-ban that you could get a threaded barrel for. You'd have to get a suppressor or QD muzzle device pinned and welded, which would make removing the barrel from the slide... impractical. Maybe someone starts selling crossbolt attached muzzle devices and barrels like Radian's Afterburner/Ramjet barrel/compensator sets, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

5) Glocks will never be expensive or a collectors items let’s just start there. Well 99.9% of them won’t unless you own something like an early gen 1 or Glock 18.

I can’t help you with CT law but I doubt you can even get within a mile of a suppressor if it’s anything like NJ.

If you wanted to sell a handgun out of state it would need to be transferred through an FFL to the buyer just like any other handgun.
