What is Connecticut's stance on the private sale of firearms?

  1. No background check is required

  2. Background checks are required for all sales

  3. Background checks are only required at gun shows

  4. Private sales are banned

The correct answer is: Background checks are required for all sales

Connecticut requires background checks for all gun sales. This means that whether the sale occurs through a licensed dealer or a private seller, a background check is required by state law. This is different from option A, where no background check is required. It is also different from option C, where background checks are only required at gun shows. Option D is incorrect because private sales are not banned in Connecticut, but they do require background checks.
