What is required to purchase a long gun in Connecticut?

  1. Eligibility Certificate

  2. Handgun Purchaser License

  3. Long Gun Eligibility Certificate

  4. No certificate is required

The correct answer is: Long Gun Eligibility Certificate

To purchase a long gun in Connecticut, an individual is required to obtain a Long Gun Eligibility Certificate. This process involves a background check and completion of a safety course. Option A is incorrect because an Eligibility Certificate is only needed for the purchase of a handgun. Option B is incorrect because a Handgun Purchaser License also only applies to the purchase of handguns. Option D is incorrect because a Long Gun Eligibility Certificate is indeed required in Connecticut for the purchase of a long gun.
