How does Connecticut law address the carrying of firearms in public?

  1. Open carry is allowed without a permit

  2. Concealed carry is allowed without a permit

  3. Open carry is allowed with a permit

  4. Carrying firearms in public is completely prohibited

The correct answer is: Open carry is allowed with a permit

Connecticut law does not allow open carry without a permit, as indicated in option A. Option B is also incorrect because concealed carry in public without a permit is not allowed. Option D is also not entirely accurate because while it is not completely prohibited, carrying firearms in public without a permit is heavily restricted. Thus, the correct answer is option C, which states that open carry is allowed with a permit. This means that individuals must obtain a permit from the state before openly carrying a firearm in public.
