Can an individual carry a firearm openly in Connecticut?

  1. Yes, with a permit

  2. No, under all circumstances

  3. Yes, without any permit

  4. Only in rural areas

The correct answer is: Yes, with a permit

In Connecticut, individuals can carry a firearm openly with a permit. This means that with the appropriate permit, individuals are allowed to visibly carry a firearm in public areas. It is important to note that carrying a firearm openly without a permit or in restricted areas can lead to legal consequences. Option A is the correct answer because it accurately reflects the requirements in Connecticut regarding openly carrying a firearm with a permit. Option B is incorrect because individuals can carry a firearm openly with a permit in Connecticut. Option C is incorrect because a permit is required to openly carry a firearm in the state. Option D is incorrect as it limits where an individual can openly carry a firearm, which is not specified in Connecticut state law.
