What does the term 'ghost gun' refer to under Connecticut law?

  1. A firearm with a silencer

  2. A firearm that is not detectable by metal detectors

  3. An unserialized firearm assembled from parts

  4. A firearm painted in camouflage

The correct answer is: An unserialized firearm assembled from parts

In Connecticut, the term 'ghost gun' refers to an unserialized firearm that is assembled from various parts. These firearms do not have serial numbers and are generally untraceable. This categorization is important in the context of gun control laws to regulate and monitor the distribution and ownership of firearms. The other options are incorrect: A. A firearm with a silencer is a separate concept in firearms terminology and is not related to the term 'ghost gun' under Connecticut law. B. A firearm that is not detectable by metal detectors refers to firearms that are made fully or partially from materials that do not trigger metal detectors, which is not the definition of a 'ghost gun' in Connecticut. D. A firearm painted in camouflage refers to the appearance or coating of a firearm and does not relate to the definition of a 'ghost gun' as specified in Connecticut law.
