What is required to purchase a long gun in Connecticut?

  1. A hunting license

  2. An Eligibility Certificate for Pistol and Revolvers

  3. A Long Gun Eligibility Certificate

  4. No certificate is required

The correct answer is: A Long Gun Eligibility Certificate

In order to purchase a long gun in Connecticut, you need to obtain a Long Gun Eligibility Certificate. A hunting license may be required in order to purchase a long gun for hunting purposes, but this is not the only requirement. An Eligibility Certificate for Pistol and Revolvers is only required for purchasing pistols and revolvers, not long guns. Option D, stating that no certificate is required, is incorrect as a Long Gun Eligibility Certificate is necessary for purchasing a long gun in Connecticut.
