The correct answer is: Yes, but is subject to local ordinances

Open carry of a handgun in Connecticut with a valid pistol permit is allowed, but it is subject to local ordinances. This means that while it is generally permitted in the state, individual cities or towns may have their own regulations regarding where open carry is allowed within their jurisdiction. It is important for gun owners to be aware of and adhere to these local ordinances to ensure they are in compliance with the law.
