In Connecticut, who is prohibited from possessing a firearm?

  1. Persons under restraining orders for domestic violence

  2. All non-residents

  3. Persons with hunting licenses

  4. All individuals under 21 years of age

The correct answer is: Persons under restraining orders for domestic violence

In Connecticut, persons under restraining orders for domestic violence are prohibited from possessing a firearm. This prohibition is in place to help protect potential victims of domestic violence from further harm. Restraining orders are issued by the court to protect individuals who are identified as needing protection from another individual due to domestic violence concerns. This restriction aims to prevent escalation or recurrence of violence. Regarding the other options: - All non-residents are not necessarily prohibited from possessing a firearm in Connecticut, as long as they meet the legal requirements set forth by the state. - Possessing a hunting license does not automatically prohibit someone from possessing a firearm in Connecticut. The possession of specific licenses does not necessarily determine firearm possession eligibility. - Although there are age restrictions for owning firearms in Connecticut, not all individuals under 21 years of age are prohibited from possessing a firearm. There are exceptions for individuals who are legally allowed to possess firearms under certain circumstances.
