Is a permit required to purchase a rifle or shotgun in Connecticut?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for shotguns

  4. Only for rifles

The correct answer is: Yes

In Connecticut, it is required to have a permit in order to purchase a rifle or shotgun. This is because Connecticut has a permit-to-purchase requirement for all firearms, including rifles and shotguns. Option B, stating that no permit is required, is incorrect because it disregards the state's permit regulations. Options C and D, stating that a permit is only required for shotguns or rifles, respectively, are also incorrect as both firearms require a permit in Connecticut.
