Which of the following disqualifies a person from obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut?

  1. Having a felony conviction

  2. Failing a background check

  3. Both A and B

  4. Neither A nor B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

In Connecticut, both having a felony conviction and failing a background check disqualify a person from obtaining a firearm permit. A felony conviction indicates that the individual has committed a serious crime and may pose a risk if allowed to possess a firearm. Failing a background check can raise concerns about the individual's eligibility and suitability to own a firearm. Therefore, both conditions are legitimate disqualifiers for obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut. Option A is incorrect because only having a felony conviction does not fully address the criteria for disqualification in Connecticut. Similarly, option B is incorrect as failing a background check alone is not sufficient to disqualify an individual from obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut.
