Can individuals convicted of a felony own a firearm in Connecticut?

  1. Yes, after a 5-year period

  2. No, never

  3. Yes, with a pardon

  4. Yes, if the conviction was non-violent

The correct answer is: No, never

Individuals convicted of a felony in Connecticut are prohibited from owning a firearm. This is a federal law that applies to all states, including Connecticut. Felons are generally not allowed to possess firearms as part of their punishment for committing a serious crime. Therefore, choice B, stating that individuals convicted of a felony can never own a firearm, is the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the federal and state laws regarding firearm ownership for individuals with felony convictions.
