What is required to purchase a long gun in Connecticut?

A valid driver's license
A state-issued gun permit
Background check and waiting period
Completion of a gun safety course

The correct answer is: Background check and waiting period

To purchase a long gun in Connecticut, a background check and waiting period are required. This process helps ensure that the individual seeking to purchase the firearm does not have any disqualifying criminal history or other factors that would prevent them from legally owning a gun. The background check and waiting period are important steps in promoting gun safety and responsible ownership. Option A is incorrect because a valid driver's license is not sufficient to purchase a long gun in Connecticut. Option B is incorrect because a state-issued gun permit is not the requirement for purchasing a long gun. Option D is also incorrect because while gun safety courses are highly recommended for responsible gun ownership, completion of a gun safety course is not a specific requirement for purchasing a long gun in Connecticut.
