Are private firearms sales between individuals who are not licensed firearms dealers permitted in Connecticut without a background check?

Yes, in all cases
Yes, but only for shotguns and rifles
No, background checks are required for all sales
Yes, but only for handguns

The correct answer is: No, background checks are required for all sales

In Connecticut, private firearms sales between individuals who are not licensed firearms dealers are not permitted without a background check. This is in line with the state's laws that require background checks for all sales of firearms, regardless of the type of gun being sold. This measure helps ensure that individuals who are prohibited from owning firearms, such as those with criminal records or mental health issues, are not able to obtain guns through private sales.
