Which of the following firearms is banned in Connecticut?

  1. Semi-automatic assault weapons

  2. Bolt-action rifles

  3. Lever-action rifles

  4. All firearms are permitted

The correct answer is: Semi-automatic assault weapons

Semi-automatic assault weapons are banned in Connecticut because of state laws that restrict their possession, sale, and transfer. These weapons are considered to have features that make them more suitable for combat or mass shootings, so Connecticut has chosen to prohibit their ownership within the state. This measure is intended to enhance public safety by limiting access to firearms that are deemed to pose a higher risk of misuse or harm.
