How long is a Connecticut Gun Permit valid before it needs to be renewed?

  1. 5 years

  2. 3 years

  3. 10 years

  4. Indefinitely

The correct answer is: 5 years

A Connecticut Gun Permit is valid for a period of five years before it needs to be renewed. This means that after five years, the permit will expire and the holder will need to go through the renewal process in order to continue carrying or owning a firearm. The other options, B, C, and D, are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the valid length of a Connecticut Gun Permit. A renewal period of three years, as referenced in option B, would be too short for a permit with a five-year validity period. Option C, a 10-year validity period, is also incorrect as it exceeds the actual length of the permit. Option D, which suggests that the permit is valid indefinitely, is also incorrect as all gun permits require periodic renewal in order to ensure the holder is still qualified and eligible to possess a firearm.
