How long is a Connecticut handgun carry permit valid before it needs renewal?

  1. 2 years

  2. 5 years

  3. 10 years

  4. Lifetime

The correct answer is: 5 years

A Connecticut handgun carry permit is valid for 5 years before it needs to be renewed. Option A, 2 years, is incorrect because it is too short of a time period. Option C, 10 years, is incorrect because it is too long of a time period. Option D, lifetime, is incorrect because all handgun carry permits require renewal at some point, and there is no such thing as a lifetime permit. Therefore, option B, 5 years, is the correct answer.
